What it is
The lead was right, so I kept it whole. Black Dog wasn't a wall of amps ... Page went into a Helios desk through an 1176 limiter, which is exactly what this chain is: @ripper's Marshall Plexi Super Lead 1959 into @outmodedelectronics' Greenback 1960TV 4x12 with an SM57 on it, then @dahmanmusic's 1176 (color-only, clean) sitting after the amp to squash and thicken it the way the record does. EQ is +3 in the mids with a touch of low and top ... that snarly midrange is the whole riff. Small room reverb at 13% for glue, and a 310 ms delay parked off on a footswitch for the solo.
The chain
Signal order, in front of the amp first. Every block is a real capture of real gear — somebody else's work, named here, and downloaded on your own account. Nothing here is a model of a model.
