Well, until you told me it was "a guess" as far as I'm concerned,
since I was just talking about what I heard (not being very interested
in reading about recordings). And I was obviously wrong about that Les
Paul... although it definitely sounds close to a Telecaster!

Thank you Charles and Darryl for giving the correct details! Much
appreciated. :-)

Regarding that tune, While My Guitar G..., I never stop admiring the
arrangement and how they voiced the guitar chords, plus that lead
guitar line, so nicely! Paul's bass is also very impressing on that
song. A lot of the White Album recordings still amaze me... everything
so musical and perfectly in tune and yet they perform with such duende
that you almost feel the mixing console circuits being ripped apart by
the overtones in voices and guitars. Guess they had been playing very
much together to reach that stage. And they had a good producer
looking over the recording and preproduction ;-)
