Gibson Les Paul ‘58: his main guitar. The original tuners have been replaced by gold-plated Grovers. Due to several neck modifications the serial # was lost.
Gibson ‘59 Les Paul: main guitar #2, given to page by Joe Walsh, from which was done the Jimmy Page signature Les Paul. The neck has been shaved to be like the ’58s neck. The bridge was rounded, so he can play any string with the bow (and not only the E’s). Two spring-loaded switches have been added under the plate (one for in and out phase control and one to put the pickups in series/parallel). The knobs have been replaced by push-pulls for coil tapping, or to play the 4 coils in parallel. The original tuners have been replaced. serial #: 91703
Vox 12-String: played on Thank You (studio version).
Gibson “Black Beauty” Les Paul: Jimmy used it a lot with the Yardbirds, and during the ‘70 tour. It was equipped with a Bigsby vibrato arm. (I didn’t hear him using it much, though).

Jimmy issued an ad in Rolling Stone, but he never got it back. serial #: 06130 If you happen to get hands on this axe, please be nice and give it back to Jimmy.
