Get your hands on a re-creation of the Black Beauty that was one of Jimmy Page's favorite guitars.
Private Reserve Guitars now has a limited quantity of
the new Gibson Custom Shop Jimmy Page Les Paul Custom—a three-pickup
1960 Black Beauty with Bigsby tailpiece.
The one that got away The original guitar that inspired this re-creation has become part of the Jimmy Page lore. In the days of his youth, Jimmy used the Les Paul Custom to play and record some of Led Zeppelin's early triumphs. However, the guitar was stolen at an airport in 1970—lost forever. Ever since, Jimmy has described the missing guitar as "the one that got away."
A Black Beauty for Mr. ZoSo
Now Jimmy’s cherished Black Beauty is back thanks to the Gibson Custom Shop. Its artisans have restored Page’s lost gem by creating two new Vintage Original Spec (VOS) versions of the Jimmy Page Les Paul Custom—one with a Bigsby tailpiece, the other with a Stoptail. Both of the Jimmy Page Les Paul Custom instruments come with a special Gibson Custom Shop case with silkscreened JP signature Certificate of Authenticity.
VOS to the rescue
Each of the Jimmy Page Les Paul Custom guitars is given the special VOS treatment by the Gibson Custom Shop. The guitar is handcrafted for comfort and playability. The construction, hardware, and electronics are period accurate, and a special nitrocellulose finish treatment gives it the patina of a gently aged vintage guitar.
The result is a stunning Black Beauty with a slim-profile neck, Page BurstBucker pickups, and a gold Bigsby vibrato. Newly added is an innovative six-position toggle that lets you isolate the neck and bridge pickups or add the middle in any combination. A push/pull switch splits the bridge humbucker into a single-coil—a Jimmy Page signature sound. A stop tailpiece version is also available.
Limited to just 500 guitars worldwide, the Gibson Custom Shop Jimmy Page Les Paul Custom is Gibson’s heartfelt tribute to a true legend and to the guitar he loved and lost. Don’t miss out on your chance—quantities are extremely limited on what will undoubtedly be a very collectible model!
