@Tatazildo I've been playing/recording for a long time. Brand of strings don't matter. Quality, material, style (flat wound, half round or round wound) and age matter. I use nickel round wound because of the fat tone. The playing technique, chord voicing, guitar, amp and recording method influence the sound (in that order) the most. See my two-part comment below "...Heavy pick, bridge pickup on,...." about my recording technique.
Great stuff , saves me a lot of time that I don't have. I just got my Gretsch country classic so now I can brush up on the great tunes. Thanks a million.
@LifeAsAnExtra: Thanx for your comment. My videos are really intended for accomplished guitarists who want to polish up there Beatles repertoire and can benefit from "seeing" how a song is played. 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.
thebeatles1595: I will tell you that I use the following chord positions while playing the lead: D (C up two frets), G (F up two frets), A and F#m. You can figure out the rest.
tkatvgps: Yes, the high sixth note (f#) is there on one of the phrases in the middle eight. It was most likely unintended, a byproduct of the chord fingering.
Heavy pick, bridge pickup on, Vox AD15VT in AC30 mode with full treble, min bass, min mid. I "close record" the amp with a Tascam DR07 digital recorder while listening to the backing w/ headphones. The backing is created with the stereo version and some eq to minimize the volume of the original lead guitar. Using software, I add a bit of reverb and to a second copy of the guitar some 40 ms delay. continued in Part II
Part II -- The guitar is panned slightly left and the 40 ms delay copy is panned slightly right. The backing tracks are then mixed in and a little compression added to the entire mix to bring everything together. Much of the sound is playing technique, which comes with experience and a good ear, and the mixing process. Hope this helps.
hey could you guys please look at my channel (we play guitars)

nice playing - can you please let me know how you recreated the original "guitar sound" here in your recording? I'm really struggling to emulate it!!
