The main 'lead' sound that I think you are asking about is coming from the strat player on the right and appears to be simply created with whammy bar and reverb. Could be coming from what looks like a Fender Twin behind the group but there,s no way to know that for sure or who is coming out of that amp. Not all that complex I'd say. What sounds like an acoustic through a guitar amp is most likely where the arpeggiated picking parts played together by both the acoustic and the Strat at the same time.

WHOA! I've forgotten 'bout this one. I just love the music and his vocal. Simplistic but soooo emotional. Thanx for the 'synapses quake'!

nervous, I think you're dead on!

...sounds like the silver Strat also has some compression going on..... Chris Isaac's guitar sounds "quackie" when he does the flat-pick arpeggios....
