Notes
Studio recording, 1966. Solo played by Paul McCartney, not George Harrison. Fuzz/distortion likely from Sola Sound Tone Bender Mk 1.5 pedal. Some sources speculate Vox UL730 or Fender Bassman, but most reliable sources point to Vox 7120 for this session. No evidence of live performance with this exact setup.
