Thanks for the details. I've been enjoying playing this different ways for years. I wasn't able to watch it might get loud. It's too much like watching Einstein teach special ed.
I tried to learn Ramble On shortly after it was originally released and always had a hard time hearing was Jimmy was doing with the chord voicing. You nailed it on this video. Once you see and hear what the guitars are doing, it's really pretty easy. Thanks for a great vid.
good job on Jimmy's solo !! In spite of being only three notes it is one of the most beautiful solos I've ever heard listening to the vinyl production of "Ramble On" !!
I LOVE this song. The blusier Zep songs are far and away my favorites, and this, along with Since I've Been Loving You are my top 2. I never get tired of hearing them. Thanks for doing this.❤
Oh my - this is a great tutorial! Especially appreciate the pace of your instruction and showing the chord charts! Now you've given me the bug to tackle this one next and ALL the parts!!! Thank you!
Nice job, Doug!!! Certainly the best of the 70s (maybe October of 69, but I didn't hear it until the 70s") '!!! Could never get the the middle part down correctly!! You nailed it!!
Love it, used to play some of Jimi's tunes until theneuropathy set in makin it difficult to do anything with my fingers anymore, but I can sure enjoy your playing these wonderfulcreatioms of Jimi"s guitar work! Ramble On!!
I'm ecstatic to see how that lick at 33 minutes in is played. I never realized it before, but that's a similar voicing to Jethro Tull's Reason for Waiting, as well as Wind Cries Mary. Three of my faves here. Very Cool. Thank you!
Jimmy layered so many tracks that trying to learn and play a studio version is almost impossible. For most of us the live versions make more sense because it's limited to one guitar 🤣🤣😉😉 Thanks for teh great lesson. 🤘🎸😎
Doug, thank you for yet another masterclass in how to play a great song. Though this one probably goes on my "songs to do when I form a supergroup" list 😊🤣
well, that cleared up 50 years of what the fuck is he doing?thanks so much. i was up at 300am when i came across your excellent video. i had it down by 500 am theres so much that goes into these parts. page is a genius
Great choice and lesson Doug👍 Led Zeppelin II, was my first but absolutely not last album from the band, back in late 1969. Besides Ramble On, Thank You is another of my favourite slower tunes on the album. I've done the "Zeppathon" several times, during the more than five decades which have gone, since epic LZ II. Keep them coming - Doug. ☮️❤️🎸
This is great! One of my favorite LZ songs. The only frustrating part is that if I want to play this live and have it sound like the record, I need a singer, drummer and bass player and then 5 additional guitarists!
Thanks Doug! Jimmy Page just has that special “it” factor and gift for composition. He’s always taking deceptively simple parts but adding melodic and rhythmic twists that make the Zep songs unique. How many hooks can you add to one song? The guy is a genius.
Hi..Great lesson..to me it answers all ??s..btw.love your les paul..one thought ..take the pickgrd off and put a white poker chip on ...not cream ,,,just white...might look good and also might not..to me you are still no.1 of all guys doing this type of video...Thanks again...Dave
The biggest miracle is how the "lead " bass line over the acoustic part, never steps on the vocal. The Vox amp info was cool, did you hear the rumor, Jimmy swapped the bridge and neck pup's? Beef up the screech and thin out the grunt. Anyway, great ear and lesson. 'Zep II was my first album, like a greatest hits. Ü ♫
Great lesson, Doug 👍 I already knew this one except for the electric guitar noodling parts. Much appreciated 🙏 BTW This song has one of the best rock bass lines ever. Enjoy the holidays! Gale 😊
Players today will never really appreciate what it took "us old folks" to learn this tune....there weren't guitar tabs, no notation, no You Tube, no guitar teachers. You had your guitar and the album and that was it.
You ever think about doing some tutorials on Humble Pie? Like, 30 days in the hole? Or One-Eyed Trouser-snake? They have some interesting titles, but the rhythm guitar is pretty awesome. I guess that’s a request 🤘
Thanks, very nicely done. It’d be interesting to know how Jimmy played it live back in the early days when there were no other guitar players with him. He must have reduced all those parts to their essence somehow.
Great lesson! Great sounds (including your nice mellow voice. I gotta question about your guitars ( love them both BTW). Do your fretboards need some oil? They look all washed out and dry…could be the lighting…could be my stupid self too. Thanks much!
Excellent play and study on the song intro - I achieve in a different way but all the same. The 'mystery' chord is a B7sus4 leading to the Amaj chord - very nice. Love the electric harmony bits. One of my fav acoustic Page songs. Others - Gallows Pole; Going to California; Thats the way ... etc. Like a lot of acoustic songs, you look for 'open' harmonising strings. I always loved how Page arranged the song order on Led Zep IV from the light and airy acoustic 'Going to California' to the heavy in-your-face 'When the levee breaks'. Page/Led Zep was about light and dark. Great song choice and a very good lesson. 👍On the acoustic 6/12 string - is that a volume knob(?) on the upper bout? Finally, how did you come up with the name '12 foot chain'? just curious. Thanks buddy, from DownUnder.
Thanks for the details. I've enjoyed playing this one different ways for years but was unable to consult "It might get loud". It's too much like watching Einstein teach special ed.
The part you detail at 23:50 is exactly as I've always played it, but if you listen to the isolated track there is another note being played, 2nd fret D string, which makes me think he's playing some or all of this part in the open E position or is using an open tuning, what do you think?
@@thepirhomancer9745 the descending E noodling thing? I'll have to look at that again. I Dont think that's all at 1st position E but will play around with it
@@12footchain It sounds like a different guitar track to the chorus so it could be he tuned the D string up a step just for that part in order to get that note?
No, Gain was at about 9 o'clock for everything. normal channel for most, then kicked on the "Mach shau" channel for the mire distorted chorus electric part
I don't think your chorus is right. Listen to this ruclips.net/video/4gDsbOraiqg/видео.html. the third chord isn't that open g. you can hear him going down to an f sharp. I think he's playing f# g d
JPJ's bass line on this song is epic...
His was the first line I HAD to learn when I bought a bass.
No doubt! My favorite instrument in this song
Liking this one at before you even get to the lesson. Yes!
Your version of this lesson kinda gives me the freedom to use various voicing of the different chords. Appreciate you!
My favorite Zep song. Timeless classic. Thank you so much for taking the time to do this one
Same mate - Ramble on!

Outstanding intro 👍
JP plays many versions through the years This is a great one to learn.
WOW! this is excellent. Thank you.
Great lesson
Thank you!
Not much but I put in a $5 thank you. This is one of your very best. You are an excellent teacher.
Terrific job. You nailed it. Very greatful. Thank you.

Thanks!

Probably both that they could use some conditioning and the lighting and camera and angle
I always got Emaj7 on the first chord of the second acoustic phrase (pre-chorus). It just seemed right somehow.
This is GREAT,,, thanks for a great job dissecting all the parts.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you for your awesome lesson. what strings are you using on your acoustic guitar (6:00)? it sounds fabulous it seems easy to play...
What a fantastic video have a good day also what is your favorite year from the 2010s ❤😊
If possible.... show us using the pedals....Congrats!

Yep, volume knob. I'll post a vid soon on 12 ft chain meaning. It's a metaphor about breaking self imposed perceived limitations.

What's up with the two les Paul's at the same time? Do it twice, I dunno what to interpret...
They were recorded separately on different takes, so just showing each part together
Do you have a lesson on "What is and what should never be"? I could probably figure it out myself, but I get a little lazy.
I do, I'm wrong about my speculation about him using the Tele, but the lesson itself should be all good. Here ruclips.net/video/WFnhviPIrsw/видео.html
Is that half of a 12 string?
Yep
Hi Doug, the picture of the Dr Robert pedal you showed…was that the actual settings you used [ie knob settings]? Thanks
No, Gain was at about 9 o'clock for everything. normal channel for most, then kicked on the "Mach shau" channel for the mire distorted chorus electric part
Sounds great but still very different but there you go we aren't Jimmy Page
You slew it.
The chorus doesn't go to the D
I don't think your chorus is right. Listen to this ruclips.net/video/4gDsbOraiqg/видео.html. the third chord isn't that open g. you can hear him going down to an f sharp. I think he's playing f# g d
