Using different guitars on a song to give tonal contrast is well known, even humbuckers for lead and single coils for rythmn, but I like to do the same for the bass and drums, very often I'll have one bass playing the verses and a different one playing the middle 8, in "Don't listen" there is a fretless in the quiet bit, and a 1960's P Bass in the Verses.
Drums can be harder to do, I tend to use contrasting Kicks or snares, gentel differences, such as a piccolo snare 14" and something a little deeper rather than EQ'ing / Compressing differently... a Pork Pie kick is a good choice, with a lovely live studio emulation, (but not too much, only a smidge), if an acoustic trio I might use a super floppy kick skin, such as Jack Johnson in "Losing Hope" or "Brush Fire Fairytales" from Brushfire Fairytales.
Listeners might notice, but did you on "Don't Listen"? It's not meant to be obvious, just subtly different.
Happy playing
