Dan, We can talk around Roy Buchanan for hours, but a 6 minute clip gets the point across directly.It's hard to believe Roy's been gone almost 18 years.

Frets99 Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 Done using Toneport on a Gearbox tone called Tele' Master. I know it's right cause Danny Gatton gave it to me hisself!! It's on my Nashville tele bridge pickup and it's where the rubber meets the road. From my perspective it's a fat in your face squawk that rawks, not an ice pick. If you don't like this tone then a tele ain't the one for you!!short tele bridge clip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BandFan Posted May 28, 2006 Members Share Posted May 28, 2006 Does anybody know what gear Jimmy Page used in that youtube video? I know a Tele, but I couldn't make out the amp (guessing a Marshall of some sorts), but curious about the year of Tele/pickups, and amp. I believe Jimmy used the same Tele on all of the Yardbirds stuff, and the tone he gets is simply jawdropping. The only way I would get a Tele is if I could get that tone...

This video? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ww9CpcoN-og Although we only get a glimspe in the first seconds of the vid ande again at 7:40 or so, those heads sure look like Marshalls for Page and Jones. Anyway, as for the Tele, Fender Europe said that it was a '58 that Jeff Beck gave to Page in June '65. (Seems early for a rosewood board...) So, a stock ash Tele with vintage pups and a rosewood f'bd might get you close. http://fender.demonweb.co.uk/fenderfiles/TenTerrificTelecasterGuitars.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bluesboy Posted May 28, 2006 Members Share Posted May 28, 2006 well... tele tone to me should be distorted yet clean at the same time... like "growly" but with articulation. Certain tones that I think have these qualities... Tom Petty Neil Young Early Led Zep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
