Jimmy Page is an undisputed guitar god, the driving force behind Led Zeppelin and the inspiration for countless guitar riffs. As you'd expect of someone of 'guitar god' status, Page is reputed to own in excess of 1,500 different guitars. Obviously trying to list every piece of gear Page has used over the years is all but impossible, and time consuming, so instead of trying to do that, I'll focus on the gear he has relied upon most commonly to form the core of his guitar tone, or the other 'stand out' pieces of kit. Guitars While playing for the Yardbirds, Page would often be seen playing a 1958 Fender Telecaster, that was given to him by Jeff Beck. Page repainted this Telecaster to feature a psychedelic Dragon. It's often referred to as Page's Dragon Telecaster. As well as being used with the Yardbirds, the Dragon was used on early Led Zeppelin tours (1968-69), as was used to record the solo of 'Stairway To Heaven'. ![]() $350.00 End Date: Sunday Jan-27-2019 20:28:16 PST Buy It Now for only: $350.00| His number one guitar, and the one most commonly associated with him, is the Gibson '59 Les Paul that was given to him by Joe Walsh. The neck was shaved so that it was similar to the '58 neck, and the bridge was rounded slightly so that he could play all the strings with his bow. Without the rounded bridge he would only have been able to play the low and high E's. Two additional switches were added, one used to switch the pickups in and out of phase, and the other to switch the pickups to series/parallel mode. The tone knobs were replaced with push-pull knobs for coil tapping and also allowed him to play with the four coils in parallel. The original tuners have also been replaced. For the hardcore fan or trivia nut, the serial number is #91703. This is also the guitar that the Jimmy Page Signature Les Paul, that was released in 1999 and 2004 was based on.

The original tuners were also replaced with gold plated Grovers. Another well known guitar Page used was the Gibson '60 'Black Beauty' Les Paul Custom, that was stolen during the 1970 tour. The Black Beauty also featured a Bigsby vibrato arm. The serial number was 06130, and even after issuing an ad in Rolling Stone, the guitar has to this day, never resurfaced. This guitar has also been reissued as a signature model in 2007. Lyrics to Zakk Wylde Low Down: You leave me hanging high Lost my sense to confide Blanks, confused and empty Yet overcome with a relieving sigh Silence, deafening silence Wicked world running through your head Tired of second guessing What I did or what it.
