7. I think it's more likely some youtuber overlaid it

Why go to the trouble of Tom playing the acoustic part on his electric? Why not just have him play the acoustic? There are vids of him playing a dreadnought on live perfs of the era of this song. Youtubers do this sort of thing to their videos sometimes, I don't think it was the Doobies. Also OGWT songs are not known for having pre-recorded "stuff". Plus the Doobies were VERY competent live, I don't think they'd have wanted that, it was frowned upon to do in 1974
