Jimmy was getting Antiquitys from Marcela in 2001 for his custom made Les Pauls... call her.. I think we once thought we figured out he was having Alnico 5's put in them????
A-5 Antiquitys would do some killer zeppy

Which Jimmy Page sound? He used a tele alot on recordings. Plus different amps. His tone changes quite a bit on various songs and albums.

He used Teles,strats,and Danos,but I think we'd all agree that his signature tone and guitar,has been the Les Paul..

Re: Jimmy page
The infamous references to the Tele sound are LZ I and the solo to Stairway. The LP references are the live album and LZ II. Think Heartbreaker solo... :naughty:

fftopic: On the schematics for wiring pickups for the 2 tone, 2 volume and 2 humbuckers(les paul) what is the spdt on-on, dpdt on-on, or push pull pot thing? My guitar does not have one. What do I do with that extra wire?

Re: Jimmy page
If you do not want to do series/parallel or split coils (i.e. keep it stock) solder the Red and White wires together and tape them (to prevent shorting out) and wire it just like stock, with the Green going to ground and the Black going to the volume pot.

Re: Jimmy page
You said they were all grounded to each other, does that include the bridge/etc? Check continuity between the sleeve of the jack and ground, and the bridge and the sleeve.

Re: Jimmy page
Not from my readings?
Guess I was right....Read this! I also recall reading about an extensive gear listing in one of my Guitar World magazines...The issue showed talked about every guitar and amp Page used from the first to In Through The Out Door...Alot of folks also didn't realize Page's use of the strat on the "Presence" album..Later again with the Firm..

Re: Jimmy page
If it is true, then no, that's not normal. Pull out the jack (unscrew the plate on the side) and check to see if it's actually a shielded wire with the conductor going to the tip terminal and the shield going to the sleve terminal. This is what truely grounds the guitar.epiLP said:

Re: Jimmy page
The solo to stairway Page has stated was Tele,but I remember reading Page say he created Heartbreaker because of the ease of the hammer ons and just being really into the whole feel and tone of a LP through Marshalls...That second album and on is pretty much LP and 100 watt Marshalls from lots of articles I've read...This is my favorite band and I know an awful lot about them! :burnout:
One of Page's quotes was...."Once I picked up the LP that was it" He liked the fullness of tone and the overall feel of the les paul...

Re: Jimmy page
That's what I thought I've read also. I heard Heartbreaker was him plugging in for one of the first times, hitting record and just jamming.STRATDELUXER97 said:

Re: Jimmy page
If you play along with the song you will notice that at 2:12 when the solo starts you will be slightly out of tune showing that he solo was later dubed and it was done with a different guitar, not to mention that the tone of the guitar is drastically different. If you listen starting at 2:07 and going until 2:12 you can hear Jimmy bending the strings behind the nut (try that on a Les Paul) the solo ends at 2:48 and you wil notice that if you are playing along with the record you will be back in tune now. Another solo starts at 3:07 and ends at 3:39, this solo is in tune with the rest of the track and has a very different tone from the first solo (2:02-2:48). The first solo is just Jimmy and a Telecaster (I have no idea what amp he is plugged into) and the second solo (3:07-3:39) would be the solo on a Les Paul.
I guess we are all right!
Does anybody else see/hear it like that?
