Beatles guitar lesson PLEASE: Read video description below BEFORE COMMENTING.
I don't have a Ric 325 so I used my Country Gentleman for John's rhythm part. I eliminated the second verse, the first bridge and third verse. This is a 1966 Gretsch Country Gentleman played through a Vox AD15VT set to AC30TB w/ no effects. Min Bass, Min Mid, Max Treble. .010 -.046 nickel plated wire wound strings. Also, a 1977 Rickenbacker 360/12 played through a Vox AD15VT set to AC30TB w/ no effects. Min Bass, Min Mid, Max Treble. Rickenbacker strings. The amp was close-mic recorded with a DR07 digital recorder and then mixed with the backing tracks created from the original recording. No tabs. No profanity in comments please.
My videos are really intended for accomplished guitarists who want to polish up their Beatles repertoire and can benefit from "seeing" how a song is played - I am not a guitar teacher and do not provide tabs. I welcome specific questions. If the various chords that I am playing are not familiar to you then I would suggest that you visit some of the many free guitar chord sites. I had to learn these songs by listening to vinyl records and watching live performances on tv.
