What Amp Sim/Plug-In To Get The Tone Of Jimmy Page ?

[PLX]

Hey, hey what can I do to get this tone with a plug-in ?

I bet this Friedman DS-40 sim would get pretty dang close.




Shit, or the Buxom Betty one.

These guys have the Marshall DNA down! Best ones I've tried out of a bunch.

The undisputed alpha dog of rock & roll amps, modeled on Marshall’s own reference unit from their museum, with an era-appropriate cabinet recorded by legendary AC/DC engineer Tony Platt.

I thought he primarily used Vox, Fender, Orange, Supro and HiWatt amps in the studio ?



He used a Marshall JMP for live shows.

Page used Marshalls and Les Pauls in the studio?? NOT!

Since getting on with a Telecaster for the first time in my life I have realized how much I never really
knew Page's recorded tones. I am literally hearing all those Zep tunes with new ears. I now understand
that the Tele offered him that bite and articulation you just don't ever get with an LP.

For as much as we know about Jimmy Page he has to be one of the most understood guitarists from a
tone perspective. I know I did. Clueless.

I know he used the LP for recording because he had them wired with out of phase switches for recording.

A Marshall is all over LZII, as well as parts of every album after. Physical Graffiti and Presence are just about 100% Marshall. He did use all those other amps but mostly on LZ1 and LZII.
