I've noticed that as well; there is an acoustic rhythm guitar track panned
to the right in the mix.  Presumably, Page did this to give the song a
more authentic 1950's feel, since many early rock/rockabilly songs had
acoustic rhythm guitar parts in them (Elvis' early records are a case in
point).  That's my guess, anyway.
