When Jimmy plays whole lotta love, the Edge and Jack can't contain how psyched they are to be witnessing a true legend of rock in action....such a cool moment.
I love this scene. Their faces. It's like, there it is, that sound we've heard our whole lives. That sound off those records, off the radio, and that's him. That's the dude from all the posters and magazines. AND he's got the guitar, THE guitar. The one from the movie, the one that went around the world. The one that made those songs. And he's right fvcking there!
No, you're definitely right. He's constantly collaborating with other artists and re-defining his sound, in my opinion, never in a bad way. What he did with The White Stripes was awesome, what he's continued to do has been awesome, and what's to come will undoubtedly be awesome. If I were you I'd start browsing his catalogue.
Bonamassa said guys the use pedals are cheating or some shit. I was never a U2 fan, but after seeing this I’m an Edge fan. Brilliant use of effects. Much respect.
That note that JP plays at around 1:29 is so tonally rich to my ears. It's a voicing that is unique to the TB MKII; haven't heard a fuzztone that sounds quite like it. Of course, Jimmy Page and the LP have something to do with it also...
Same here. That’s “ the “‘ fuzz tone. I’m sure he was plugged into an original 1958 or 1959 Les Paul and some of the best Marshall’s ever made which helped but that tone alone inspired me to pull the trigger on a MK II. Some I was hesitant to do for years but I just had to have that sound and if you set the amp right and use humbuckers, it’s pretty close to that exact tone. I’ll even use a King of Tone or Lightspeed sometimes with barely any gain just to boost it up a bit and help change the characteristics of the amp.
@@jordandangelo180 The secret is in transistors germanium Mullard OC75,+ suitable voltage collector Q3 (depending on the temperature)+ powered by a 9V saline battery=100% "Fuzzy lotta love".
I've built a bunch of fuzz pedals over the years and finally got my hands on an oc75 and some oc81ds in just the right hfe/low leakage to make a TBII clone and my god is it good....sounds like Jimmy's pedal here. The sustain is about infinite and absolutely gallons of harmonics. I know people consider germanium just cork sniffing and apparently the topology is whats important...but i'm not so sure. That build sings like nothing else. (Next best is a skreddy lunar fuzz filled with silicone bc108s which sounds nearly as good, go figure :) )
Maybe people like him because instead of just being another guitar player doing a certain genre he developed his own style into something unique that attracts people.
Okay... But can we talk about that double bend in the opening clip? Down towards the open position. Bent that high string downwards, holds that and then grabs a low string and bends it down. That bend was money.
@SuperColossalSatch It;s not, it's a 90's reissue. The close up of the enclosure shows that, the old ones look a bit different, slightly different fonts etc. :) Anthony Macari of Macaris/Colorsound/Sola Sound sent one to him when those reissues were on the go. He also sent him the new D*A*M made MKII recently.
I have been out of it for awhile and am unfamiliar with Jack White or anything he does, but I got a feeling about him when I saw him, and heard some of the stuff he did jamming with Page. What little I could hear, anyway. I got a feeling he could be a monster! Am I right or am I all wet??
Jimmy Page has his own custom Hiwatt amplifiers that he has made, at 200w per head. That's pretty damn violent if you ask me, he used those and an Orange head I believe for the Royal Albert Hall show in 1970.
Your wrong. Look at the pedal closely at 1:58. Its the same JMI Professional Mk 2 pedal i saw for sale. Not cheap either. Im sure he used others, but the one in the movie : It might get loud is a JMI.
This is the official internet gaydar patrol speaking, attention anyone who didn't air drum bonham's parts when page played the riff: I have some bad news for you...
Ma'am, that's equivocal to blasphemy in my book. Jack White has done great things for modern music, and he's done it with a unique style. The Edge doesn't even deserve an explanation. You must be of Page's generation, and completely, or almost completely, ignorant of The White Stripes catalogue.
frankie28web and yet, they sound better from him playing sloppy and out of tune than anyone else playing them cleanly and in tune.. (this coming from a Berklee musician, we get a reputation for being so technical that we forget soul.. Jimmy Page is the opposite, and I respect that.). Sure, if I were to play his riffs I’d try to play in time and not make mistakes, but I think expression is more important.
