My guess was Hubbard, sure sounds likehis style, and sounds like a Gibson ES-335 as well, not that Phil couldn't play one. I figured they didn't credit Neil w/ lead guitar for it would be somewhat of a slap in the face to Phil as one of the original members. But I would never doubt John O. nor Martin, so I would really like to get closure to this one now that it is a controversy.
