Yep. They started playing it back in 1973 in their live set list, until about 1983. It still comes up in their live shows from time to time.
If you track down a copy of the Concert film 'Black and Blue' you can see the best live filmed version of them playing it. It also appears on the DVD 'Live 1976' and in the recent Rematered 'Some Enchanted Evening' bonus DVD 'Live in 1978'

Well I'll have a guess... from left to right....
I believe the first one is a Single Coil Fender Stratocaster, putting it at around 1967. Next, the greatest bass of all time, the Rickenbacker 4000 series. Since its not a hollow body, it rules out the 4005, and it has the skunk-strip so that rules out the 4003. The 4008 was an 8-stringer. I doubt its a 4002, since most common was the 4001, which is what I'll go with. The last one, I thought was a Gretch, or Duesenberg DU Hollow Body.. but the head stock looks like another Rick, so likely is a Rickenbacker 330JG

1. Wrong, Ferd has been using Ibanez guitars for quite a time now, this specific guitar is a custom shop Ibanez SZ with a Kahler flat mount tremolo and 24 frets, it is loaded with Seymour Duncan JB SH 4 TremBucker at th bridge and an Alnico 2 Pro at the neck.
2. Yes, it is indeed a 4001, this one was a gift.
It is strung with Ernie Ball roundwounds.
3. Again yes, this is a regular 330 that Floyd equipped with the Rickenbacker humbuckers and recently added a a Bigsby too.
He bought this guitar sense he couldnt find the Rick that John Kay used without having an outrageous price on it.

This is the basic shape of the guitar and headstock.
Ferd's version has 24 frets and thick Gibson like neck with medium-jumbo frets.
It is also neck through body.
