Did Jimmy Page use his Marshalls in the studio?

Where the marshalls used in the studio or just for live use? I know that JP used a variety of amps in the studio, but where the marshalls ever used, and if so, can anyone tell me what tunes they're used on? Thanks guys.

Several songs of II, III, IV and Houses.

All or most of Physical Graffiti, Presence and In Through. Several on Coda, depending on the year of the actual recording.

Achilles' Last Stand, Trampled underfoot, Nobody's fault but mine, In the Evening, Custard Pie, all of those sound like Marshall to me.

I read somewhere that most of the time he used a small Wilco amp, made specifically for him, in the studio

Most of IV sounds like it was recorded direct.

I had read that he used a Tele or Braodcaster into a BF Princeton Reverb, at least for solo in Stairway and I think Whole Lotta Love. You probably can't trust everything that you read, though

Tons of AC30 and Strats on Presence. I have achieved a very convincing Stairway solo with a Tele and Supro tube rectified Thunderbolt.

In an interview John Paul Jones stated that when the future members of LZ got together to jam for the time in a studio/building Page was renting, Page had all kinds of amps lining the walls, including Marshall. If you think about it, it seems unlikely that Clapton, Green, and Taylor could acquire a Marshall amp in the mid-60's, but Page could not. More than likely Page just preferred the sound of the Supro over Marshall. There is really no telling what Page used on some of the LZ recordings.

Here is a great interview from GW.
http://www.iem.ac.ru/zeppelin/docs/i...ews/page_93.gw


Near the bottom he says that Bring It On Home and the solo for Heartbreaker were some of the first songs he played through a Marshall.

No I'm pretty sure he used the various Tech 21 Character Series pedals.
