  • Do you think you could make a tutorial on how to play no quarter?

  • @Ramanmastr

    sorry, I'm not able to

  • The original sound was a Mk1 Rhodes, Maestro PS-1A phase shifter, and the Fender Dual Showman amplifier. The phaser created the 'watery' effect, the amp made the Rhodes sound more hollow. The sound it slightly easier to achieve with the WurliTzer, because it has a more hollow tone to begin with.

    JPJ also used the Rhodes in a similar way for the sound in Misty Mountain Hop and other. As far as I know he never used a WurliTzer EP with Zeppelin.

  • correct,

    thank you.

    (no problem for me, I have a rhodes mkI too... :) )

  • Cool!!! EXACTLY what I was looking for, using a POD. Thanks so much!

  • you're welcome!

  • John Paul Jones used a phaser (a Maestro PS1A, to be exact). Is that enough for you?

    The sound in this video isn't perfect, but it's pretty good.

  • Alright thats fine,

    thanks for replying though.

  • Use what you have.

    :^)

  • it was a rhodes piano and a maestro phaser.

  • nice

  • Yes they did have alot of pedals.

  • devil

  • no offence but I dont think they had all that stuff in the 70's

  • I just love my Mk1. I am still kicking myself for passing on a Wurli 140A, Wurli 200a, Vox Jaguar that was offered to me a few years back.
