Paul McCartney backed up by Guilds

[Ross]

My acoustic group is working on the Beatles' "I've just seen a face". One of the group found this 1991 video of PM doing an "unplugged" version. There's a Guild 12-string featured prominently, and the bass seems to have a Guild pickguard.

Great clip!

Bass does look like it has a Guild headstock. Massive enough to be a B-50 or a B-30 but I couldn't figure out which one.

Well, here's a version that is only Guilds. I promise! But no McCartney (you can't have everything).

Thanks. I couldn't do it on the 12-er, like on the McCartney video, though.

Well done, Dave; nice rendition.

The more I work on this song, the more I appreciate it. It's deceptively simple-sounding, and difficult to do well (like most Beatles songs). :lol: I can see why it was chosen as the opening song on Rubber Soul.
