Studio recording, 1965. The solo section is played by John Lennon on his Gibson J-160E acoustic-electric, plugged in and likely mic'd and/or DI'd, with no evidence of pedals or additional effects. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for the solo section. Rubber Soul era.

The solo is melodically simple and slow, but requires clean articulation and precise timing to match the acoustic-electric tone and phrasing.
