The Beatles - Come Together - Guitar Cover

There is some amazing guitar tone on this song in both John's rhythm and George's lead! The trick is to set your amp so that when you play soft you get a clean sound and then during the choruses when you hit it hard it gets distorted. Notice how John uses the neck pickup during the verses and outro and then switches to the bridge pickup during the choruses and first solo. George plays an awesome harmony guitar solo with the neck pickup on his Gibson Les Paul and then switches to the bridge pickup for the outro solo. After the first solo there is a sort of sliding on the lead guitar from the lower region of the neck to an A note at the 10th fret. There is also some faded double stops before the outro solo.

Epiphone Casino being used for John's part was extensively modified to have all the visual and sonic characteristics of John's famous sanded Casino John played during the White Album and beyond. This Epiphone Casino was made in 2001 at the Peerless factory in Korea. The volume/tone pots were changed and the tone capacitors were replaced with Orange Drops. The neck pickup volume knob was replaced with a black one and a black "goof" washer was put underneath the pickup selector, just like Lennon's. Most notably was the replacement of the original tuners with gold, vintage-style Grover "Milk Bottle" Rotomatic tuners, the exact same kind that John had on his guitar. Interestingly, both the Inspired By John Lennon "Revolution" Casino and Limited Edition Lennon Revolution Casino do not have the milk bottle Grover tuners.
