Stairway to heaven Tele sound

Re: Stairway to heaven Tele sound

Yep, that's what I recall hearing. Although when I hear Pagey play a LP, it doesn't sound like what I think of as a typical LP sound, it sounds like Pagey. A bit thin and choppy, but very cool.

Except for "Tea for One", on that particular song I hear perhaps the archetype of vintage Les Paul tone...well erm, I guess his Les Paul wasn't exactly "vintage" then but close enough! But yeah, I agree, much of the time it's almost downright twangy, weedy, wiry...of course then he's probably employing aspects of that famous switching system.

Hear this and other video, same show: it is absolutely possible that he used a tele, but who knows?

That was sensational!

Never seen Page so ON.

Great rhythm playing - dug the solo too.

That's how I'd like to remember Led Zeppelin.

Page used a LPB strat all over the "Presence" album.

Agreed..Before the weed,coke,and the heroin days say mid 70s. By about late 70s I thought Page looked and played kinda terrible!
