It sounds like there are several overdubbed lines within the intro lead alone. I could be crazy but that what I'm hearing. No one will ever get the sound of that lead ever again.
I'm pretty sure this is definitely Eddie Van Halen playing on this guitar track. And if it isn't, this is the best cover version of this song EVER. But again, I certainly don't doubt this is Eddie.
@MOSKII58 The solos are the only part he was using the strat with the non-locking tremelo for--the rhythm throughout the rest of the song is his fixed bridge Explorer. The solos are punched in separately after the main guitar was recorded.
I can really tell why Ed was so sick after hacking his Ibanez Destroyer.....damn, that thing had some FAT tone for the rhythm tracks. Of course, what the hell can you say about "Frankie" that hasn't been said a million times....and the Plexi.....THANKS for posting up this isolated track!
EDDIE VAN HALEN!!!! I would recognize that epic tone in any song, any year, on any planet....It can cut like a razor or it can be soft and creamy, but it ALWAYS melts your speakers =)

@MOSKII58 It had something to do with the way he set the springs attached to the tailpiece.

Listen how the chords during the verse sound. That's the perfect example of what I love about that guitar tone so much.
