Man and Machine featuring Bon Jovi’s Richie Sambora’s signature talk box and slide guitar, all deliberately sounding like it was recorded quite a few yesterdays back."

So apparently it was talkbox plus slide guitar from Richie.
There isn't much more than that in the song anyway (from a guitar perspective)...but those licks are just awesome. The arrangement is very reminiscent of Damned though...can almost hear some Asbury Jukes in there.

Anyhow - interesting how they deliberately went for the Whitesnake sound. Not difficult to miss
