I have it on good faith that the reason Page's strap appeared so long is 
that
Jimmy is, in fact, only four feet tall. He bought the shortest strap he 
could
find, but...well...you already noticed the results. The music industry just
doesn't accomodate people that aren't within the bell curve for height.

So, to get this closer to being on track for this list, didn't Page use
Echoplexes quite a bit?
