Re: [Mellotronists] Strawberry Fields...again!
Sorry, but I think you may be both wrong. According to ITV's 'theSouth Bank Show' 1992, it's a real slide guitar, recorded actually onthe vocal track itself. Sir George Martin (for it is he) isdemonstrating what sounds are on the 4 track tape.

Best wishes,
David.



Sorry, but it's bass accordion...
YES! Illumination atlast!!!
 
I wondered all my life whatthe heck that strange sound on the left channel right after the first"´cos I´m going to...". It´s nothing moreand nothing less than the Mark II (or is it Mark V´s?) Guitar.It´s also the sound that makes the pitch drop (and NOT the flute, likePaul showcased so many times).
