Page's Strings (no ACTUAL zep content)



Thanks for all the responses I got about the strings etc....after just 
reading a couple of posts...I suddenly remembered that when I first started 
playing guitar....well electric guitar.....I used EB 9's.....and used them 
for awhile til I got the whole "bending" thing down etc.....plus my action is 
real low...and it was just easier for me on barre chords etc.....but ya the 
tone suks...and they slip easily etc....and Page is out of tune alot.....as 
my hand strength increased I switched around trying various gauges etc.....I 
like the heavier strings personally, the rich deep tone you can get with 
them....ahhhhhh....Someone said something about Pages 
acoustic....strings...now that I have never even thought of...since I have 2 
acoustics, but neither one are a "Page" type style whatever....one is a 
yamaha fg-75, very nice little guitar...and apparently wanted by ever music 
store I take it to...but doesn't have the sound I really need or want for 
certain ZEP songs....I put heavier gauge strings on it, to practice and gain 
my strength....however....not many Zep songs sound to good on it...(perhaps 
it's the player ;) My acoustic version of TYG sounds alright, and OTHAFA 
pretty good too...anyways...enough of my rambling....THANKS...TO ALL who 
responded. Apparently I DO NOT want to go back to EB 9's, since I used them 
in the first place,and IMHO I also think they are only good for beginners! 
Rock and Ramble on...Have a safe 4th...seeing as how last night I was popping 
black cats in my drive, when the entire fire brigade showed up at my 
neighbors house...UGH....I thought HELL they are only firecrackers....luckily 
nothing I did...so with that......Party on Zep Heads...

Play on
