Jimmy Page Edit

(1944, United Kingdom)   |   |   |   |   |   |   | 

( fr ) Guitar historian Robert Lynch made this comment about Jimmy Page: 'In the relatively short history of the electric guitar in rock music, there have been few who can be labeled as 'Iconic'. Mr. Page is one of those select few. His eclectic stylings, his compositional prowess, his studio mastery and innovation, and his stage presentation were all areas where he excelled like no other and foreshadowed many who have followed in his wake.'

By Ralf Pansch, Herald & Review, Decatur, Ill. Jun. 18--DECATUR Every guitarist has a favorite, or go-to, axe.

However, he'll be forever synonymous for his use of the Gibson Les Paul guitar that he strutted during his heyday with Led Zeppelin. So much so, that the company built a Jimmy Page model of the Les Paul. No sooner would the late Jimi Hendrix be done burning his Fender Str [Read more]
