Notes

Studio recording, 1966. Solo was recorded at half-speed and doubled with piano. George Harrison played the solo. Gear based on session documentation and period interviews. No evidence of pedals or outboard effects used on the solo; all drive from amp and guitar.

Difficulty

The solo requires accurate picking and timing to match the piano double, as well as control over dynamics and clarity on a 12-string at moderate gain. The technical challenge is moderate due to the double-tracking and articulation required.
