This had to be done to follow up on "The Guitars of Jimmy Page" video so I thought to do it while the gear and music was fresh in my mind. I was aided by some great players on this one and the generosity of some of the best known people in the amp business as well.
It's always hard to balance covering them "all" and doing a level of detail without going too long. I did my best but don't hesitate to add what I missed in the comments.
I hope you like it. All the best,
Keith

I saw Led Zeppelin 5 times here in Seattle from just after their second album on. Jimmy Page was absolutely phenomenal and is truly a special player. He was the main reason I bought my first Les Paul which was a 1971 Cherry burst Deluxe. Thanks for the upload Keith!
Thanks for having me as always!!
Always my pleasure.
your playing was great !
@@TheBhannah thank you!
Keith, thanks so much for using my clip in this killer episode. It's great to be in the company of Jeff and Gretchen, and an honor to be connected to Five Watt World.
Nice playing man!!
@@JeffMcErlain Same to you, as always. I was jealous of your Tone Bender because mine decided to pick up radio stations the day I recorded!!
"Namaste 6 feet away." Love the PSA JB!
@@davidpepper442 Oh you found that, huh? Hahaha.
@@JeffMcErlain you as well Jeff... nobody better anywhere in the world imo
Love this one keith... I keep learning so much from you...:)
Thanks Tim!!!
I will leave this as a review: Very comprehensive, well researched, 10/10.
If I’d had this video in the mid-2000s, you would have helped me avoid years of horrible gear purchases 😂 All I wanted was emulate Page’s sound but had no clue how to do so. Great content, as usual!
buy a les paul and cut your hands off - instant Page.
I'm a tone chaser as well and understand you pain. These day I help guitarists by using my 20+ years in production to help them find their tone. Doing so, though, can take days as it requires a perfect combination of pickup, neck material, strings, amp, cabinet and effects. It also requires me to warehouse and service a very large number of guitars, amps and effects.
Not a bad way to spend my retirement though :)
I just wish they made the SV20H a few years ago ! It does have a Five Watt mode !
"Tone Chasing" is a dangling carrot you'll never catch.
Those guys weren't drooling over gear from yesteryear while they were making their music - so why are we?
@@shaft9000 First, for the record: they were drooling over gear from yesteryear. The late 50s Les Pauls, even then, were "vintage" and considered way better than the guitars Gibson was releasing at the time.
But to your bigger point: for so many reasons.
Because I love them and want to be them but can't. Including because they are a product of a time and place that is gone and never coming back.
Because I'm addicted to an elaborate role-playing fantasy in which playing the guitar, writing music, etc., makes me feel more connected to art that's moved me, and the people that made it... notwithstanding that I'll never meet them, or even seem them perform that music.
Because I'm not worrying about whether I'm going to eat today, so I can worry about whether my vintage fuzz sounds just like Jimmy's did in How Many More Times.
Etc. etc.
Killer Hypes!
Thanks Hypes!
Yes! As a huge Zeppelin fan these last two have been so enjoyable! My favourite way to enjoy my first cup of coffee is with a 5 Watt video!
Thanks for the wonderful encore! 😎
Fantastic! Thanks to everyone involved, much appreciated!
Great video ... some wonderful playing my Jeff McErlain, Gretchen Menn and JB Eckl. Thank you.
Always outstanding! Thanks for doing this.
Page is my first guitar inspiration and ultimately the one who triggered me to want to learn it. Thanks for the great video.
It’s funny to think about how Page influenced so many to pick up the guitar. I wonder how many less guitar players there would be had Led Zeppelin never been…
@@hogie1259 That is right! And yet, during Led Zep career, many music critics discredited their music. But they were wrong!
The best piece of gear for me is the guitar. Cheers!
page is the reason i still play.

The JP Hiwatt was largely a DR103 with an additional switched gain stage (the big XLR connector) and it essentially gets you to where Gilmour > Power Boost > Hiwatt gets gain wise. A glorious thing.
Yup.
Yup.
most people don't even know what it really sounds like - the royal albert hall show isn't a good representation IMO. sounds to me like it was one of the last shows he used the tonebender at. if you listen to bootlegs from 70 and 71 his tone is a lot cleaner and closer to his early marshall tone that would follow. the marshall has a certain high midrange thing that the hiwatt isn't as pronounced in
I love the RAH. One of those was Page's birthday and he's playing his ass off with those amps just smokin'.
Awesome Keith. Great research, story and even greater players. We now have a Jimmy Page Box Set! Loved it.
Outstanding video as always! Great research and presentation.
Thank you so much! Great video man. Really enjoyed it.
Keith, Thank you for another great video. You continued expansion of providing live clips, musicians demonstrating the various guitars & gear combined with exhaustive research provide truly delightful journeys into the history & lore of legendary music. Cheers!
More awesomeness! Thanks Keith.
Thanks a bunch for this !!! Loved it! James James - if you happen to read this - know that you're missed
Excellent content. Thanks Keith👍🏻
Jimmy Page is responsible for my 30 year journey to achieve the perfect tone on guitar.
Great video Keith! Love these history lessons! 🎸🔥
What a nice treat on a rainy day. I've been waiting for this one. McErlain is on fire, as usual, and Gretchen and JB sound great, as well. Thanks for putting this together. I've had a couple of Supros, but never managed to get that sound out of them.
Once again, a solid and great video, Keith! Thank you for this!!!
Been looking forward to this!!
Excellent video!! Thank you for sharing the knowledge.
Fantastic ! Thank you !
Excellent work. Thank you
Couldn't wait to watch this one Kieth!! Love the Channel Bruddah, Stay Groovy!!
Awesome 👏. Thank you 🙏
Knocked it out of the park again, Keith! Thanks for your efforts.
Another great video from 5 watt, I can't get enough of this type of content about the the equipment, guitars and the players and how they used their instruments as a package.I am currently reading the Anthology Jimmy Page several others.I Love the breakdown of the time-line and where the various instruments (guitars, amps and effects) were used. As always your delivery is excellent, interesting with impeccable resources Including the brilliant guitar players to lay down the vibe in the examples. Look forward to the next installment of 5 watt, I could watch nothing but 5 watt all day! Thank you, keep the great work.😎
Really enjoyed this video too, thanks Keith!
always a good day when Keith makes a video
This has been a great dive into Page's tone palette.
Bless you Keith - hope you and yours are happy and well - best regards from the storm-battered UK!
Awesome stuff!!!! Well done!!!!🤟
I spent the coin and bought one of the signed editions of Jimmy Page The Anthology. I had to wait a long time as Covid delayed production, but as with all good things, it was worth the wait. I consider this to be a prized possession. Keith, your video and description bring this book to life adding a "live dimension" to the text in the book. Thank you for all you do.
That was really great from beginning , middle to the end . Somebody's got to keep Rock & Roll going and your doing a fine Job of it🤘😎🤘
Hi Keith! Great topic man..sorry I missed this live.. catching up as always..🤘😜🎸🎶❤️☮️..hope this finds u well my friend!
Thank you so much Keith! I've been really wanting a video like this, I absolutely love your channel and all the content you make. Absolutely amazing Jimmy Page things I just keep learning about! If you could I'd love a video in this similar fashion to the effects and amps Pink Floyd/David Gilmore used over the years
I could not love your videos more. You do such an exceptional job.
Hey Keith, thank you so much for helping me get a better Page tone from the gear I already have. Great to lean how the delay, octafuzz and phaser for use in those epic songs. Loved this series. Got to agree with you after seeing this. His pedals played a huge role in his tone. It reminded me of this comment Page made on the film "It might get loud", when he mentions he's got this Les Paul with huge sustain and he wanted to add an extra punch. He engages the pedal and starts playing, and right then and there the classic tone come out. It makes so much sense now after seeing both your videos. Thanks for all the hard work!
Thanks Keith, this vid is why I love this channel so much. Informative, and something I can keep watching over and over. I've actually fallen to sleep to this channel. Not because I'm bored, more so because I'm content. My favourite channel.....
And I need to thank you Keith for another awesome video.
This is awesome!!!
Another fantastic, comprehensive and super interesting video. Jeff’s playing and that of JB Eckles (sp?) we’re inspiring. And you’re 100% right about True Fire! Thank you!
Perfect timing!
Page was so committed to music. The gear that fell into his path over the years had no other choice but to define the tones and songs in his head.
So much gear it can make your head spin. love the content! Love my 5WW t-shirt as well.
You had me at "The..."
That was awesome, keep doing the amp vids 🤙
Great video! I appreciate all the research you did for this!
Very interesting, the research here is amazing, you done it again Kieth, thanks.
You did indeed and I got on TrueFire too :) great history video as always!
Awesome video and great information!! Gotta love this guy
Thank you for all you do.....your research is awesome & I love your videos
Thx....great stuff
Fascinating video, I loved Jimmy's tone since the first time I heard a Zep album when I was in Jr High School many moons ago 😀 Cheers!
Thanks Keith, Very informative. Blues On....💙
You rock, Keith thank you
You deserve a lot more views and subscriptions your content is pure gold.
Thanks Keith Williams.
This is great excellent video thanks
Once again....another jewel...thanks Keith
This history and info is awesome, thank you
Stopping by again Keith!
Quick plug for the Catlinbread Belle Epoch pedals for Echoplex duties. One is a permanent fixture on my board.
And I’m he Catlinbread RAH for some great ‘Page in a box’ touring tones!
@@JB_Eckl I have one. How do you set yours up?
@@JasonChannell I fell in love with someone else’s… I don’t have one yet!!
@@JB_Eckl holler if you want to borrow mine. Serious offer
Yup the Catalinbread BED with a expression pedal is a stellar way to create, not just emulate. Great video Keith and highly addictive.
I can't express how good these are..they inspire me...it's impossible not to play after watching this..I'm even holding my 200sg clone right now as I watch..like I'm a kid again..thanx✌️👍❤️
I love hearing Jeff McErlain play, and he's a great teacher too. He's my son's instructor, and mine too, although he doesn't know it. :-) Thanks TrueFire.
Keith, a wonderful addition to the guitars of page episode. Page and Zeppelin are most of the reason i first began playing guitar as a kid, so this was a fantastic journey back there for me. Thank you !
Another rockin' episode! 🎸🎸🎸
Fantastic! Thanks
Great informative video, thank you.
always love watching videos of the gear of my heroes. as a gear fanatic, I found this fascinating. same with other vids. Keep em coming Keith! Sincerely, a loyal subscriber
great info thanks for sharing!
Really enjoyed this one!
Thank You for emphasizing the genius of Jimmy Page, his rig, his guitars and his vision.
Continued success, Keith & 5 Watt World
Excellent you really do your homework, I salute you sir
Thank you Keith for another tremendous installment into the 5 Watt World Short History catalog. You never cease to amaze me. Please stay safe and be well! Until the next time, Ed
Thanks Ed
Another piece of greatness Keith, thank you. It's so great to have access to this kind of info now. I'd kill for it back when I was growing up and what little info you could gather was at least 80% wrong. A great benefit for guitarists today.
I really like this format of detailing artists gear. Great mix of the history, the musicality plus geekness... Good stuff.
Great video Keith, lots of learning about Zeppelin sounds in 22 mins!!
Keith, always great information and told in an entertaining and informative way! Page has been "the man" since the 60's! I saw Zepplin in Charlotte, NC in about 1970 at the Charlotte Coliseum. As I remember the PA went out a couple of times so Page and Plant sat down in chairs down stage center and played and sang acoustically till the PA was restored. Everyone got quiet and I was about 100-120 ft back and could hear clearly!! What a night!!! I own a Sound Production Co and still love all kinds of music to this day.
Fantastic, as always! Makes me want to find and try a Selmer amp someday. I think these two Jimmy Page episodes are the most comprehensive breakdown of his gear on UA-cam. As far as the debate on whether it’s the guitar or amp that most effects tone, I gotta agree, so much depends on the amp!
Thanks Keith, I like anything Page!🎶
Nice one Keith!
Another monster vid of epic info on British gear... And a mention of an embargo lifted in 1959?!! Wow. Stunning photos Keith. Thanx.
Gotta hand it to you Keith...Your studio tour was very enlightening and also entertaining as well. Thank you for the work you put into this video. Rev. Muddy Fort Worth, Texas
Thanks Reverend
Ed was a total groove and is sincerely missed, but he lives forever between the grooves and we are blessed for that. One of my lifelong guitar inspirations, I admired his dedication as well as his gentle and visionary demeanor. Signed, A Florida hippie.....
I just want to say thank you to whoever left that guitar in the house that Jimmy’s family moved into. Who knows if he would have started playing guitar without that falling into his lap.
He, and Robert Plant, and I would have all stayed in the Choir. :)
G O O D
POINT!!
We asked and we've received BLESSED
Great info once again!
✌️😎🎸🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶
The Supro part of this video is pure gold. Altough the whole video is fantastic.
Thanks! You do good videos, man! :)
Great video!
Sounds great!
Good job thanks
I love it , Cesar from Brazil!!!!!!!!!!!
Great stuff
I am very lucky to have a Roland Chorus Echo machine. Tape delay & excellent reverb a durb. Love that thing.
Jeff’s playing on this video is absolutely superb. Thank you Keith, your video’s have created a wonderful community
Thank you!
