Stu,
  That was great. I read along time ago that Page used a tele in the studio on the entire first albumn thru a small combo amp(don't remember the specifics on it). Clearly one of the all time greats on a telecaster.

Early on, he did use a Tele. Afterwards, he moved on to the Gibson, and ain't looked back since.

Not entirely true Deezer, while its clear that Page prefers his LPs live, as well he should. I've read that he still loves the tele and just check this out. I still love what he does with a telecaster.

It's not the guitar....It's the person playing it that creates music.
Tone is subjective.

That Telecaster has some real Honkin' SNORT!

"the first Zeppelin album, along with the solo from “Stairway To Heaven”, was recorded with a 1958 Fender Telecaster that was a gift from his Yardbirds band mate Jeff Beck and a Supro amp"
