The secret to many a great Led Zeppelin song is knowing which tuning Jimmy Page used when writing and recording it. Today, I am thrilled be in the Bay Area, where GRETCHEN MENN and ANGELA PETRILLI are on hand with acoustic and electric guitars to demonstrate for you many of Page’s most magical tunings, including: “Kashmir” (DADGAD tuning: D, A, D, G, A, D, low to high) “Going to California” (Double-Dropped-D tuning: D, A, D, G, B, D, low to high) “The Rain Song” (D, G, C, G, C, D, low to high. AKA “Open-Page tuning”) “When the Levee Breaks” (E, A, C, F, A, C, low to high) “Bron-Yr-Aur” (C, A, C, G, C, E, low to high) “Friends” (Same as “Bron-Yr-Aur”) “In My Time of Dying” (Open-A tuning: E, A, E, A, C#, E, low to high) “Ten Years Gone” (Dropped-D tuning, which is standard tuning, but with the low string tuned down a whole-step to D) Enjoy! — JUDE GOLD, host, No Guitar Is Safe podcast.
