That's a Gibson double neck guitar that Jimmy Page is playing! One neck is a 12 string and the other is a six! Notice Jimmy switches necks when he goes into his epic guitar solo!

When a band sounds better live .. you've got some special talent in stage. 🐐 S

[@williamcabell142]

When the Artist are Great, their live performances are always better then the studio recording! The GOATS! 😎🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@dadwhatsfordinner]

Amen to that.

[@plother4242]

I agree with only one exception. Even though they sounded just as good live, Queens Bohemian Rhapsody is one that I like the visuals you get with the studio version only because they couldn't do it the same on stage.

[@sicotshit7068]

@@dadwhatsfordinnerif you are still doing reactions, here’s a few live performances you should do. MSG (1973) Since I’ve Been Loving You, an amazing blues song. Live at Earls Court the May 25,1975 version of In My Time Of Dying, that’s the best visual & audio version, it will blow your mind. Live at Knebworth the K is silent (1979) Achilles Last Stand, & Kashmir, both are unbelievably amazing songs. Studio only slow amazing blues song, Tea For One. These guys put the passion into their music, & are above the rest especially live, 3 to 4 hours nonstop concerts. Thank you for your reactions.

[@eatthisvr6]

They were simply the best band ever

[@JoeSmith-ey2xp]

There are no bad Zeppelin songs and your favorite will usually be whichever you listened to last.

[@dadwhatsfordinner]

Amen to that. There are only a few artists that have that effect

[@mervinward256]

i will agree with that. been listening to led zeppelin all my life. still dont know a better band than zep they were and still are in a class of there own

[@hunting4one]

And after their first U.S. tour they never had an opening act. They played a 2.5 - 3.5 hour concert just by themselves! Best band ever!

[@kathiekinsler]

I loved your reaction. LZ was the GOAT. They were amazing live

[@Marcia-nz9si]

I still listen to them. I'll be 65 in April

[@brendawoodson3230]

Keep going with this group you won't be sorry

[@heliotropezzz333]

In a live performance the recorder sound is played on a Mellotron.

[@yozaseig3870]

Any Zep appreciated 🤘

[@shannonpace9433]

Try their song, In my time of dying, live at Earl's Court.

[@kathyjones3940]

Seen Led Zeppelin 2 times, once in 1977 on April 1, 1977 Toronto, at the Maple Leaf Gardens, then on October 17 , 1980 in Montreal, at the Montreal Forum, and my best friend bought tickets for Robert Plant's solo tour on June 10, 1985 at The Pacific Coliseum, Vancouver, BC, Canada!! Led Zeppelin are truly amazing live and so sexy!! Robert Plant during his solo tour was amazing as well and just as sexy , like fine wine he ages so well! Had front row tickets to all 3 shows!! Going to see Robert on Wednesday Aug 14 at 7:00 PM at The Queen Elizabeth Theatre Vancouver, BC Can't wait!!! ❤️🥰🤘

[@oliver6749]

That was awesome bro!! If you would like to be impressed again, watch Since I've Been Loving You from this same concert

[@aandpman]

Double neck guitar. Top neck is 12 string - each normal string has a mate thats an octave higher. Bottom neck is standard 6 string.

[@sandyjackson4248]

The guitar is one 6 string on the bottom and a 12 string on top. He uses the 12 string one for a softer sweeter sound and the 6 string for a harder more powerful sound. Now you have to rewatch it to figure out when he changes! Enjoy!

[@alhme50]

Great React to One of The Best R&R Bands in history Bro !!! \m/ SO MANY MASTERPIECES With this band.......... may i sug, Led Zeppelin - Achilles Last Stand (Live Knebworth 1979) will BLOW UR MIND !!!! One of THE BEST things about L.Z to me is the Rhythm section ;) (Drums & Bass) the groove in this song in INCREDIBLE !!!!!! Peace D :)

[@darrencooke4207]

It was a recorder on the studio version but keyboards here. John Paul Jones was multi talented. Bass guitar, woodwind, keyboards and lutes as well

[@sebmorrell]

Isn’t it a melatron?

[@darrencooke4207]

@@sebmorrell Sure but a melotron is a keyboard

[@tannonwraith4692]

It wasn't a recorder. JPJ used a keyboard instrument called a Mellotron to play those flute/recorder parts. It's the same instrument you hear playing the flute parts on Strawberry Fields Forever by The Beatles. The Mellotron is not a synthasizer however. Inside, it has a bank of 8 second tape recordings of various intruments for every key of the keyboard.

[@darrencooke4207]

@@tannonwraith4692 if you listen to John Paul Jones explaining how he recorded the studio version he explains that he played three types of recorders and blended the sound together at the mixing desk. Anyone can tell they are the real deal and not synthesized. As you say, in the live version when he plays the melotron, its a keyboard that can modulate sounds that are recorded into it. So its a keyboard playing the sounds of a recorder

[@tannonwraith4692]

@@darrencooke4207 I never said it was a synthesizer. Read what I wrote one more time and get your information correct.

[@lowellwebster4198]

I would like to see you start with Led Zeppelin 1 and work your way through the rest of the albums in order.

[@kerryknight228]

An album dive would be incredible

[@shannonpace9433]

Yes, start 1st song on 1st album.

[@williamcabell142]

Notice he plays the solo on the 6 string (the bottom), he plays the rhythm on the top (the 12 string). Watch and notice when he changes. It’s called a double neck.

[@dadwhatsfordinner]

Amazingly talented how he changes back and forth.

[@julienmarquet8612]

You're one of the 1st, young guy, who, dare saying live is better that studio version! Which is, totally, right, especially, for those super creative bands, who were improvising, making their songs evolve night after night, on stage.... Super reaction, bro....Place from France ✌️🎸🎼🇺🇲🇨🇵

[@eatthisvr6]

The double guitar is so Jimmy can play the intro and the solo on the bottom 6 string and the rest if the song on the top 12 string

[@dadwhatsfordinner]

I see. Thanks!

[@plother4242]

You know when you are listening to a great band when you can hear a fantastic song and right away know who it is. They have a sound unlike any other that no one can duplicate successfully. Led Zeppelin, Queen, The Bee Gees, the Beatles, bands like these are one of a kinds that we will never find a match for.

[@ortizu2]

Whole lotta love official video. My god you will be amazed!!!

[@juliemanarin4127]

More Zeppelin please!!

[@dadwhatsfordinner]

More coming soon. Thanks for watching!

[@SearlesHernandez]

One of the best bands of all time! Great reaction as usual. 🤙

[@dadwhatsfordinner]

Thanks!

[@SearlesHernandez]

@@dadwhatsfordinner that's a multi-neck guitar. 12 strings on top and 6 strings on the bottom. I believe the model is a Gibson EDS-1275.

[@dadwhatsfordinner]

Ah ok. It’s seems pretty wild. Amazing watching him play

[@betseyr.9081]

In a way this is professionally mixed, they were filmed for 3 nights at MSG during this tour and in 1976 the edited version was released in theaters under the film title "The Song Remains the Same". It was a midnight film sensation in theaters for years and is available to stream or purchase on Blu-ray/DVD to this day, watch it!

[@nthdegree1269]

The Film Song Remains The Same was also partly performed at Shepperton in the UK. They needed extra footage, so part of this is actually from there, hence John Paul Jones wig etc

[@robertasirgutz8800]

If you can imagine it, "Since I been Loving You" live, is even better. Dig in. We'll be listening to this music for millenia, like Chopin, Beethoven, the Beatles and the like. You said it well, timeless. Stairway is considered a masterpiece, and is rated by many as the greatest rock song ever.

[@juliemanarin4127]

Yes...they are even better live!!

[@dadwhatsfordinner]

They are amazing

[@kerryknight228]

Best guitar solo ever! ✌️

The build up of this tune is amazing. Almost 50 years ago. Robert Plant can still hit those high notes even today.

[@johnburton1686]

Without question, start with Led Zeppelin I and continue on through of their collection. You wont believe it. Pure genius musicians playing REAL instruments and crossing a genre spectrum.

[@Bluewizard7131]

Greatest live band ever!

[@Bluewizard7131]

Check out Whole Lotta Love live from this same concert. Unbelievable performance and quite a bit different from the album version.

[@carlgutierrez3993]

Going through the albums in order and song by song is a great way to see the evolution of this great band! You won't be disappointed! And yeah, this is the greatest rock band ever!

[@bobbyn.9773]

Great reaction brother, if you could do the Song Remains the Same/The Rain Song from the same MSG concert in 1973 i would appreciate it, its an amazing performance 🙏

[@sooth6059]

The 2 neck guitar was only used out of necessity as the studio version used multiple guitars, top is 12 string electric bottom is 6 string and the studio ver had lots of 12 string acoustic in it

[@ewoe21]

Great review of Stairway to Heaven.

[@jmar7631]

Nice reaction, thanks. Jimmy Page was the only electric guitar player for Led Zeppelin (John Paul Jones played bass guitar and keys), thus played both lead and rhythm guitar. He was a genius in the studio but was able to layer in various guitar parts. When he played live, he sometimes had to use a double-neck (12 strings on top, 6 on bottom), often tuned differently, to get the sounds he wanted. If you want to see him really shred the guitar, watch their performance of Dazed and Confused from the same concert. Page's playing will blow you away, no doubt about it. But I first recommend listening to the studio version so you know what the song sounds like. Zeppelin loved to improvise during performances, so much so that at times it's difficult for anyone who isn't familiar with a song to know what they're hearing, and they did a great amount of improvisation during that performance of the song. It would be cool if you reacted to both studio then live like you did with Stairway to Heaven. Oh, and the reason they sounded as good live as they did during the studio cut is because there was no computer-generated anything, nor auto-tune, back then. When you listen to a studio version, that's just how they sounded. Anyway, hope to see more Zeppelin reactions, and thanks again!

[@RockinMamaT]

You should check out the tribute to Zeppelin stairway to heaven performed by Heart at the Kennedy center honors❤

[@williamcabell142]

It’s a 6 string on the bottom, and a twelve string on the top. He plays them at different times! Go back and watch. He solos on the six string!

[@bobbissell2910]

It’s a Gibson EDS-1275 Double neck Custom made by Gibson for him

[@johnburton1686]

John Paul Jones played the recorder on the studio version, not at the 1973 MSG concert. Jimmy Page provides an excellent explanation on the making of Stairway to Heaven during a BBC interview that you can catch on KZbin. Highly recommend it.

[@samlawrence4670]

For led zeppelin my favourite album is led zepp 3, gallows pole, tangerine and bron-y-sue stomp also going to California live a great great song Jimmy on acoustic guitar incredible. Please also react to Dire straits, sultans of swing (alchemy live version is a must). Keep on enjoying the new to you music.

The double neck guitar consists of a twelve string and a six string guitars.

[@craigcooper9801]

It’s not a recorder bro, it’s that keyboard looking thing, sorry, can’t remember the name of the instrument, but it’s recorded sounds played on keys, amazing for the time! An still sounds sooooo good today!

[@bishlap]

in the studio they used a recorder, but this live version it's the synth/keys making a similar sound(s).Peace

[@johnwalsh9144]

When you realize that the equipment, they are using on a live stage 50 years ago would be considered pre-historic with what's available today, this performance reaches a new height of impressive! These are 4 master musicians and performers which is why the quality is so high. Jimmy Page (Guitarist) founded the band and wrote or co-wrote and produced all of the music. He is widely considered one of the best rock guitarists of all time, frequently landing in the top 5 of most lists, some say second only to Hendrix! Robert Plant was voted the 15th greatest vocalist in Rolling Stone's top 100 singers of all time. This is not an old list, it was updated 8/1/23 and there are several singers ahead of him on this list that are there in my opinion, because they were some of the greatest songwriters and not vocalists! John Paul Jones (Keys/recorder on this video) was the bass player and all piano and keys, but also was a muti instrumentalist. If you hear an instrument in one of their songs, and aren't sure who is playing, its likely him! He also arranged much of their music, especially beginning with the 4th album, and culminating with the final studio album *In Through the Outdoor* which credits him heavily! JPJ was the backbone of this band, the quiet one, often not mentioned, sometimes not seen, lost in the splendor of the spectacular drumming and the famous frontmen. I saved the late John Bonham for last, his death caused the end of the band, as they all decided he could not be replaced and thus, they would not go on! He is often mentioned as the best rock drummer, but certainly no matter what that list looks like, he is always on it, and near the very top! When VH-1 did their end of the 20th century, Top 100 Acts of all Time special, 1998, updated in 2010, LZ finished 3rd behind only The Beatles and Micheal Jackson.

[@Prone2Thrill]

You've heard Led Zeppelin and Tool - two of the best bands ever IMO. I would REALLY be stoked to have you take a free suggestion and now add THE BEST GUITARIST TO EVER PLUG IN - Stevie Ray Vaughn (SRV) and listen to his pinnacle performance imo Texas Flood at El Macambo (btw most of his stuff is live don't worry about studio too much) also super hot is his duet with Johnny Copeland called Tin Pan Alley. Oh boy!!

[@susanpalmer8931]

All of the Led Zeppelin albums and releases including most of the available filmed concerts - official ones- were produced by Jimmy Page the guitarist. An accomplished producer in his own right. So the audio and sonics on all the official releases are exquisite!! I hope you get back into Led Zeppelin reactions - your reactions are really enjoyable. May I suggest another number from this same concert - Since I've Been Loving You - Led Zeppelin blues at its best - it really takes you on a journey.

The best of the best band ever put together led zeppelin know one can come close to zeppelin Allahu akbar God is the greatest thank you god for blessing us with the greatest band ever led zeppelin how did you do it they were only in there 20 my god talent beyond believe

[@basher5107]

The guitar Jimmy page is playing has a 12 string on top and a six string on the bottom to create a more fuller sound in certain parts of the song and the six string for more basic sound and solos. You mentioned the clarity for a recording done in 1973 and this performance is based on three separate sold out shows at the Garden and while the performances are live this entire album is a “soundtrack” for an overall film and there were many overdubs and sounds added in the studio post performance,This is not to say the band wasn’t good live because they were actually much better live than there studio performances and they would play more than three hour shows and always gave it everything they had True masters of Rock and Roll,some consider them the best of all time and after selling more than 300 million records that’s an argument that can be made.
