I think these are all Grady Martin playing guitar/6 string bass

I've always thought that the brief, fuzzed out riff at the beginning of this song sounds so fucking tuff, then it of course goes into Alvin & the Chipmunks...

Early single repeat tape delay

I wonder what kind of pickups Les Paul is using here, they don't really look like P90s?

Nice call on the Grady Martin stuff. FYI, it was a Danelectro, the six-string bass you're talking about. Seafoam green...

Here's the first use of the EHX Big Muff Pi... V1 Triangle...

Re: Les Paul, he didn't really play much that he didn't either make himself or modify past the point of no return...
