With a 1950's wired Les Paul Standard that's how you get the Jimmy Page sound.

Look at a Jimmy Page wiring diagram and you say what? I did have my Studio wired like that. Nothing sounds like Page really. You look back at what he had to work with. Distortion from very high volume, his amps broke up naturally. He used his bridge pickup and fuzz, that was the kitchen sink in his day. I believe he used a phaser too. Max out a Black Fece and you most of the way.

This was the late 60's and they used everything including the kitchen sink.

There are a couple that are more complex but the same results.
He had a tech wire the 1959, the same one he bought from Joe. Joe gave it to him and then wanted paid or the guitar back. I would said stick it up your pooper you wining bitch. Then taken that guitar and beat him to near death with that old poop box brown turd. Butt holes like that need to fly right out of a window.
Thanks I feel better.

Yeah, it's fun to play with both worlds. When you play with the volume knobs, you get all sorts of great tones.

Hey, John....I read an article by Iommi's tech (can't recall his name) and IIRC, he said Tony never ran with his tone knobs past 5-6.

Thoughts???

I can see that working for him. When I was adjusting the tone knob on my Billy-Bo during the second to last song at a gig Friday, I realised I was at 4-5 all night. It still sounded big and clear. Then rolling it up gave it some more bite. That was with stock Filtertrons.
