Playing Style
Led Zeppelin's music incorporated elements of rock, blues, folk and on later albums funk.Guitarist Jimmy Page incorporated open tunings, particularly open G tuning, and often used a cello bow on his guitar to simulate the sound of a classical-stringed instrument.
Equipment
Page favored Marshall amps and Gibson guitars, especially his trademark Les Paul though he did use a Fender Telecaster during 1968 and 1969 and a Danelectro Guitar.Quotes
- "Jimmy Page was drawn to guitar in the 1950s by Lonnie Donegan's skiffle sounds and Elvis Presley's sexualized rockabilly, and by the 1960s he was a major player in the London pop scene. He made a reputation playing on sessions for the Kinks, the Who, Them, the Pretty Things, Herman's Hermits and Donovan, among others".—Rolling Stone MagazineRolling Stone:The Long Shadow of Led Zeppelin (July 28, 2006)
