Will listen again to see if i can hear George's acoustic, its meant to be more hearable at John's first 'cry'.

 

Thanks Joe for the reply and link to the comments.

He said GH isn't on the song. However, some of the comments on the song page suggest there is a second guitar after all, which can be heard more clearly on the stereo remaster. I haven't given it a listen yet. What do other people think?

I'm pretty sure there's bass guitar on there, though as with much of the early Beatles recordings you might have to crank up the bass levels to hear it properly.

Revolution In The Head

Lennon: Double-tracked vocal, Acoustic Guitar.
