Matjaz1 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Cool! I always thought it was done with a violin bow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireOpal Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) Thank you. Wasn't this the bit from Lucifer Rising, or similar to the music composed for that film? Edited November 19, 2013 by FireOpal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Lord Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) Thanks for that. That was really cool. I too was certain that the intro was done with a violin bow. That Jimmy can be quite tricksy. Edited November 19, 2013 by The Dark Lord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chap Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 The new model of the Gizmotron is set to be released in July 2015 at the NAMM show in Nashville. There is a model for guitar, and there is one for bass as well. They are being cagey on pricing. We shall see! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mithril46 Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Perhaps Aaron could explain better, but from what I heard the original was crap. The company/ project quickly went bankrupt. It was brought about at least partially by members of 10cc, a British pop group. Obviously Page never used it live on ITE. I suppose the device was unreliable for live work, or Page was too far gone to get the part together. Remember the live solos for Hot Dog, Page never quite soloed over the changes properly, so that wasn't together either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chap Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 New gizmotron 2.0 is $450 for guitar. New website is updated since the Nashville NAMM premier of the new model. http://www.gizmotron.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
in_the_evening Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Cool, and fairly daring of Page to use it, as I think it had only been invented a few years before! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixpense Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 The Gizmotron was borrowed by Jimmy from Kevin Godley and Lol Creme for the recording. Not sure if he ever purchased one himself. I could see Jimmy use this on a double-neck Stratocaster. (One neck for the intro) and the other neck for playing the rest of the track live.

Mithril46 Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Does anyone know of a long-standing guitar-mag or so which has reviewed the 2.0 ?? Sorry, I don'ttrust the on-liners....too easy to plant positive reviews. Very possible it hasn't actually been released, sono reviews. Actually the price could be a problem, because for perhaps $300 more you could get aguitar synth with an expression pedal , put in a strange tuning, get close to what the Giz does,and do much more. Of course guitar synths are all a bit finicky, but as creative as the Giz may be,your'e paying 450$ for a one-function effect, as cool as that may sound.

Gives me a new appreciation of how excellent that opening is. Could be the best intro to any Zeppelin track. Amazing. Pure Page genius.
