great playing, listening to it on the album you would never know page just used a les paul to get that almsot acoustic sounding tone.

may i ask what kind of amp and OD pedals you use?

[privettricker]

@logen99999 I rarely use pedals. There's no pedal on this one, just straight into a Marshall AVT 50H half-stack.

Are you droning the E string when your doing the Verse Rift?

Curious

[privettricker]

@ShamusGarfunkle3 Droning, but slightly muted.

@diperrimax Actually, you can't say whatever you want. Because this is my channel. You're a troll and you're banned.

@diperrimax When you get past puberty, you should come back and visit us.

Did you guys notice the guitar player in this jeans ad? AWESOME jeans, but even more AWESOME guitar player.

BTW, I hear some Third Stone From The Sun (Hendrix) influence here, which came first? Am I wrong?

Another great video from privettricker. One little thing I noticed in the main riff. There was an interview with Page in the 90's and he explained that the 4th note of the main riff (G) he bends the G (4th string, 5th fret) upwards just a little bit and also plays the open G. It makes it slightly dissonant and gives it that sort of Middle Eastern sound. Sneaky!

@pr9301 I believe the No Quarter version is pretty much the same arrangement except they're tuned down a whole step.

[isatacobell]

you're a great guitar player,did you have anyone that taught you or did you learn by yourself?

[pr9301]

Good job! Now could you help us with the No Quarter version?  Cheers!

i think i meant underrated. i am a bit stoned.

[westprice]

Great. I always let the D string drone. Led Zeppelin listeners don't consider this overrated.

[YouKnowWhoTheBand]

i fuckin love your guitar. im only 1 second into the video and it already kicks ass.

@privettricker thanks for the reply. your tone sounds great! really authentic. and nice guitar too. i'm assuming historic. would really like to pick one of those up one day if i had the scratch.
