@@GeneShuorts Go back and research when Jimmy's Les Paul was stolen from a concert back in the 70's. It ended up in the hands of some school mates of mine, that's how I got to play it, but didn't know who's guitar it was. I always remembered the 3 different pickups and 3 toggle switches at the top of the body and wondered who would do that to a super cool Les Paul.
@@baileyayyy5085 . Nothing good can be said about you, in fact why bother answering, you just burnt out yourself by your mouth, you aren't that clever after all and take care.
@@metallion0738 also you literally said I can't know that without meeting him yet you say theres nothing good to be said about me and we have never met? Whats this?
Its funny they keep showing him playing the sunburst in the Albert Hall video footage instead of the Black Beauty which he uses for the encore C'Mon Everybody.... yeah we notice these things.
I noticed that too. He never played WLL with Black Beauty....just the encore songs mainly... Like 'Bring It On Home' and 'C'mon Everybody', etc Details are important! 😊
It’s a good era for famous missing black customs returning to their owner. Peter Frampton, now Jimmy Page. It’s not a Les Paul, or black but Billy Corgan got back a Strat that was stolen.
I call bs. “ shielding himself from beer bottles”. It was still a 1960 Gibson. You don’t do that. You were playing punk rock bars. You could have used a $100 guitar at the gig and nobody would have known the difference. A Hondo or a Squire. Ibanez GIO. Come on.
I saw a guitar like that, but it was a 1959 model at Rainbow music in New Paultz , New York..I was only 15 but I wanted that guitar so bad ..They wanted I think $1500.00 this was 1980..So I begged my Dad to co sighn a loan but he said no..He just did not understand the value of it ..I am willing to bet it is worth $20,000 today? I never saw a Les Paul with a tremle bar in real life before or since then..
So glad Jimmy got it back and I don't believe the first fat dude about not knowing it was Jimmy's guitar that's bull but so glad the second guy bless him for his kindness and honesty for founding the 2 drilled holes which Iam sure the many hands that touched it thro the years knew then covered it up lol but regardless so glad it made it's way back to its rightful owner Jimmy .I can only imagine the smile on Jimmy's face when he seen it 👍
What kind of guitar did he get from Jimmy in the trade ? Did he get to meet Jimmy or did Jimmy send someone ? Nothing wrong if he sent someone and didn't go himself, after all it could have ended up being a scam.
If only they had done this for john lennon’s gibson j160e. Instead it was auctioned off knowing full well that it was a stolen guitar and that it belonged to john.
What the frig are you talkin' about? Two "distinctive" drill holes? Where? Up at the neck pickup mounting ring? That's your problem? Really? I mean, it doesn't need a neck reset or totally major work like that? And you have the gall to caption your video presuming these goofwads to be guitar "experts"?
Vic Flick played the classic James Bond Theme, and Jimbo played the guitar in “You Only Live Twice" by Nancy Sinatra ruclips.net/video/L0tUndI28jg/видео.html
It's common knowledge that Jimmy played on Goldfinger. He's got proof of it in his Anthology book. He was present when Shirley Bassey collapsed onto the floor after laying down that vocal.
Yeah, but Jimmy was standing there, looking over his shoulder, so he could see how Vic played it, and then he could nick it later, and say that he wrote it. History always repeats itself when it comes to Jimmy. Ask Bert, John, and Davey.
This is old news like YEARS old news and I assume the reason it came out now because the NDA expired. He got the guitar between 2003-2005 how you think Gibson did the replica? SMH
Page didn't use that guitar on ANY of the songs mentioned. Famously he used a Fender Telecaster (on which he painted a multi-coloured dragon!) almost exclusively for everything up to and including Led Zeppelin II. He eventually upgraded to include a number of VERY expensive guitars including this one and at least 2 1959 Les Pauls (known as "Bursts" because they were early examples of the Sunburst paint job). These are the Holy Grail of guitars with an "ordinary" one (not owned by a pro "name" guitarist) currently fetching upto $500,000. If a "name" is attached to a Burst then the sky is literally the limit! I couldn't even guess the value of one of Page's Bursts, but it would certainly be multi-million USD!
The only songs mentioned he used with the Les Paul custom was Petula Clark’s Downtown and the James Bond soundtrack. Lay off the stupid pills and open your ears to what is actually said.
@zepfan Man which means he had the Black Beauty before he was in the Yard birds which is when Jeff Beck gave him the Tele. So he could have used the Black Beauty to work out the riffs for all the songs on LED ZEPPELIN I we don't know anything for sure. That's one of the great things about ZEPPELIN their surrounded by mystery
Direct quote from Jimmy Page: " I played the Les Paul on Whole Lotta Love and What Is and What Should Never Be and that decided it for me: it was definitely going to be the Les Paul from then on. I always wanted to make a change for each album sonically and that was my first decision for Led Zeppelin II. Like I had built Led Zeppelin around the Fender Telecaster, I built the second album around the sonic texture of the Les Paul Standard. Neither Joe Walsh nor I realised at the time just what an important thing he had done by coming along with that Les Paul." ( I have heard over the years that Page recorded Whole Lotta Love on the Black Beauty, but the Walsh Standard is the "Les Paul" Jimmy refers to.)
Hows it going guys? Im the guy who scratched Jimmy Pages guitar while doing work at his house in 2016, wasnt even my fault - he was on something and trying to have me hold his guitar and let go before my hands were there, i caught it but the bottom swung and hit other guitar and scratched it. The guy he talks about in interviews that is supposed to have ducked him and he can't find him - thats me, only i didn't duck him and he's been fucking with me the whole time. He could have filed an ins claim even tho it wasn't my fault but wants me to pay. He has half way stalked me ever since calling all my employers, random messages here and there. He flips between he is sorry and I owe him a million dollars for his guitar.
I got to play this guitar 50 years ago in high school and how it came to be is quite a story. Would love to tell Jimmy some day.
What’s the story behind you playing it?
Yes please tell us
@@doodlesasap7894 he didnt. That’s the story

@T B was the neck like a 60's burst?(thickness wise) I bet the p.a.fs sounded incredible!
So there is no video or photos of the exchange? That is very odd and such a missed opportunity.
Yo for real
Jimmy has people do that kind stuff
Aww I’m so happy for Jimmy 🥺🥰
Jimmy Page was an awful person and im glad someone stole it :)
@@baileyayyy5085 . Have you met Jimmy in person to say that, if yes where and when, and what is your real name??

I was jimmy pages milkman and in the early days he always liked a goldtop
I cant believe he shielded himself from beer bottles with that guitar
Why not?
He had no idea it was really Jimmy’s haha. As far as he was concerned it was HIS guitar and not anyone else’s.
I call bs. “ shielding himself from beer bottles”. It was still a 1960 Gibson. You don’t do that.
You were playing punk rock bars. You could have used a $100 guitar at the gig and nobody would have known the difference. A Hondo or a Squire. Ibanez GIO.

@@JohnDoe-jc3cl lol cry. It was his and he could do what he want.
Why not, it's better than getting hit in your head an eye or mouth, yes it's fair to use it as a shield of protection etc.

Worth more like $80k depending on condition
In the end, good always wins over evil.
Cool Guitar 😎👍
this is a marketing ploy by gibson to sell his reissue custom guitar. there is no way that that is the original.
As much as I would love that guitar if I ‘found’ it or came across it, I just couldn’t bare for it to not be in the hands of Jimmy.
Jimmy has given so much to this world. The scumbag who took his guitar could never be forgiven.
Didn't the man who stole it from the airport keep it hidden under his damn bed until the day he died?
Framptons phoenix story is crazier
And?
I have been waiting for this story to be published for like 5 years. I think this happened in 2016! What were they waiting for?
Excellent ❤️🎸🎸🎸🎸
Yeah. That's some consolation to Jimmy Page for sure. Way after the fact.
Simplesmente incrível! ❤️❤️❤️
I hope he got a new vintage 1960
So glad Jimmy got it back and I don't believe the first fat dude about not knowing it was Jimmy's guitar that's bull but so glad the second guy bless him for his kindness and honesty for founding the 2 drilled holes which Iam sure the many hands that touched it thro the years knew then covered it up lol but regardless so glad it made it's way back to its rightful owner Jimmy .I can only imagine the smile on Jimmy's face when he seen it 👍

He got a 59 LP Custom that was worth about $50K at the time (and is probably considerably more now).
Ellos es todo,,,
If only they had done this for john lennon’s gibson j160e. Instead it was auctioned off knowing full well that it was a stolen guitar and that it belonged to john.
It actually belonged to the insurance company that paid out the claim for a stolen guitar, to John.
👍🇬🇧❤
No Way!!
Why are the pickups different?

Vic Flick played guitar for the James Bond theme, not Jimmy Page.
Page played on Goldfinger.
ur a vic flick

I would have insisted on a personal meeting/exchange with Jimmy + a song of choice played by Jimmy
For the reward
I've met Jimmy he is a absolute Gentleman I don't understand why he couldn't pick it up himself??

2015 to be exact.

too bad it was played alot .. shitty music changes the guitar...think about it .
No it does not
@@Infam0usKiller crappy sounds ...lolzz haaa
Maybe Bert Jansch, Davy Graham, and Jake Holmes can offer their opinions on what it's like to be a victim of theft.
You definitely don't know anything about blues and folk music
Stop treating these people like Gods. It makes them not want to talk to you.
Huh????
this is not the case with OPage. He talks to his fans very often and very politely.
January 9th, Happy birthday Jimmy Page
