From: Les Paul (Zil@Masterpiece.com)
To: Guitar@nevada.edu
Subject: Four Sticks


b = Bend
v = Downstroke

For the main Riff (get a pen, It's so complex, you'll need to
write this down), Jimmy Page uses a guitar on distortion. For
the Riff 2, Page uses an acoustic 6 string. And for the part
played with the synthesizer, he plays both an acoustic and an
electric.
