Heard this on the radio today and thought, “Damn. That guitar sounds straight amazing.” So I did a little research on the guitar solo tone  when I came across a surprising tidbit concerning the rhythm section.

Anyone know who played bass & drums on this song? Here’s a hint: they’ve been playing together in their namesake band since 1967 (!). No Googling!
 
Once someone guesses, I’ll put up the link to the article I was reading – super-interesting stuff!
Oh, and here’s the song – dig that guitar solo…
