Are there any pics of him using the Tone Bender before Dec 20th 1966?Philip wrote:There are two objects, the rest is coming from your imagination.
Aside from some mid 66 shots showng him using a Maestro fuzz, all other Yardbirds photos which clearly show a fuzz show the Tone Bender enclosure.
Everything is transitional.

Re: Page Fuzz
Thanks. Never seen that one before, but that should be from May 1969.
The earliest I have ever seen him use it is the March '68 French tv appearance. I don't think there has ever been another photo surface showing it earlier, but I'm digging through my archives and the web for anything earlier, to be sure I have it in the timeline correct. Led-zeppelin.org states Jimmy first used it August 24th 1966, but gives no info as to where they got that date.Electric Warrior wrote:Are there any pics of him using the Tone Bender before Dec 20th 1966?

Re: Page Fuzz
Yeah that is Becks Les Paul. He was 'sick' for that and several other shows.

Re: Re:
There are photos from a small gig in which it appears he is using a tone bender shortly before that date. No pictures of him using one from before December 1966. There's a few from various dates in 1967.Electric Warrior wrote:Are there any pics of him using the Tone Bender before Dec 20th 1966?Philip wrote:There are two objects, the rest is coming from your imagination.

The led zep website mentioned above is just assuming that he used a tone bender from the moment he switched from bass to guitar.
