I eliminated the 2nd and 3rd verses and shortened the outro. 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. Lennon’s part is the upper guitar which he played on his Ric 325. Harrison is the lower guitar and he used his Country Gentleman. George Martin played the piano. The studio tracks were about 15 cents flat so I pitch corrected them for this mix. I used a couple of live performance videos, the original studio tracks and the Decca audition version as my research sources. No tabs.
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.
