I stand corrected. Carol Kaye did do the intro according to the wiki for the song. It didn’t mention who played the solo but did list the personnel and credits Glen Campbell as playing a Danelectro Longhorn 6 string baritone. I’ll have to listen to the song again but the intro and the solo song like the same baritone guitar. Did Carol Kaye play the intro with Glen’s baritone?

Here's a later version of Glen doing Wichita Lineman with Stone Temple Pilots. At least in this version he's playing both the intro and the solo with a Danelectro Longhorn Baritone guitar with a 29.72 scale length which is shorter than both a regular bass that's 34" scale length and even a short scale bass that has a 30" scale length, but longer than a standard guitar that is usually between 24 3/4" on a Les Paul and 25.5" on a Strat.
