    I don't see why anyone would. That was killer man! Plus the shirt your wearing reminds me of the similar patterned sweater JP wore at the RAH show. The way you use your thumb also reminded me of Hendrix playing in a similar manner. This was awesome and well done mate!

    Thank you so much ! Yeah that's why I wore it, I had it before I even knew about Led Zeppelin haha. From the very start I've been using my thumb to reach the E and sometimes the A string. It's very useful, that way your index finger can do something else.

    Yes, indeed. A lot better than paying 10 times more just for an autograph w/ a different book cover.

    R😎

    True, but don't forget, that's not any autograph, that's The Man you've been a fan of all your life !

    Just for the curious out there, the books are ready for shipment, the printer being in Italy, Genesis is waiting a bit (I'd say end of May/June) to ship the books.

    Boy, and I thought that was going to be my christmas gift haha

    Nice try kid but your timing is a bit off...Jimmy is playing slightly before and sometimes after the beat..very rare he’s on top of it like you. Keep at it tho!

    Thanks Paganini, that's very true, I'll be careful about it on my next covers !

    Wow! It's beautiful, and the Bigsby tremolo fit perfectly on here. Obviously the sound is great (from the videos). My only question would be about the quality, is there anything you notice on it that seemed to be a little lower quality? Or have you been completely satisfied with it so far?

    I wanted it for pretty much the same reason, I thought it was one of Page's coolest guitars. Seeing as he's the biggest influence on my playing and the sound I like to get, I figured this would be perfect! I just can't figure out where Epiphone cut costs to be able to make a premium guitar available at a lower price? You'd think they'd be losing money selling these, unless they're outsourcing production to Indonesia or something.

    I'm totally satisfied with it, one of my friend got a Gibson and I can't tell any difference in quality (sound wise and quality wise). If it's setup correctly you will probably have a hard time find the difference. My main concern was the Bigsby, but the guitar doesn't go out of tune (when I bend the G string behind the nut of Heartbreaker I have no issue except if I do it 4 times in a row ..) and the sustain is still nice. That's the only difference with a Gibson, maybe  a bit more sustain but that's probably just a setup issue on my side.

    Nice, Antoine! Great sound out of that Epiphone, looks like the Black Beauty copy? I was actually thinking about getting this one from Sweetwater soon, what do you think of it?

    Thanks ! Yes that's a copy of a Black Beauty, I bought it without the bigsby and added it myself. It look awesome and sounds great, but in all honesty so does any guitar IMO. The guitar is plugged into Amplitube 3 where I can choose the sound of the guitar. The Amp and the pedals does everything. 

    But not every guitar has a bigsby, and that gives you a possibility for distinctive sounds. 

    Just the fact that I'm able to play the intro to C'mon everybody at the RAH with it is well worth it haha!

  5. Hi! 😊

    As a big fan of Led Zeppelin I've been playing a bunch of songs of the band for quite some time. I'm a bit perfectionist but since it's just for fun the covers are far from perfect. 

    I'm planning on doing Dazed and confused soon since I have a bow.. 

    Hopefully you can still enjoy them! 

    Antoine. 

  6. Hi ! :)

    Today I had a great surprise, like every years, Spotify show me a list of my most listened songs of the year, the artist of the year for me was Jimi Hendrix with 83 hours listening to him, followed by Led Zeppelin. My favourite song of the year was Have you ever been to Electric Ladyland which make sense since I've been listening to it countless time while playing guitar and learning it. the years before Since I've been loving you was my number 1. Since 2017, Hendrix went to number 1 as my favourite artist.

    Here's the list of the songs i've been listening to the most this year. Very interesting to look at for me !

    It can be very cool if everyone can share his playlist (if you use Spotify).

    My top 100,  from top (Have you ever been to .. Hendrix ) to Guess Who (BB king) for the first 42 songs

    huh? There's literally a photo of Jimmy in the studio on the back cover of the album.  As for the rest of your question, I have no idea what you're talking about.

     

    Thanks for the picture, I was hoping for a picture of Jimmy and Joe together. The credit on the back of the album answer my 1st, 2nd and third question.

    What I meant by "legal session" is that to avoid any problem he played under a false name on the album of Roy Harper "Stormcock" , which is not the case here obviously

  8. Hi,

    It's well known here that Jimmy Page played on With a little help from my friend, but was he the guitarist on the whole album ? or there was another guitarist (playing rhythm) in the studio ?

    Was it a "legal" session ? by that I mean that it was recorded in 1968, and maybe Jimmy Page went in the studio under a false name just like he did with Roy Harper.

    And finally is there any picture of Jimmy with Joe Cocker in the studio ?

    Thanks guys ! :)

    Ps : I should have post this in the Pre Zep forum, sorry !

  9. Oh man Rest in Peace Marty Balin, it actually truly make me sad, he was one of my favourite singer, "Today" has been my wake alarm for a few year now, and it's one of the song I love the most ... it hurts to hear this news .. :(

    it's just like hearing about Robert Plant, Jimmy Page or JPJ death

    Goodbye Martin. :(
