Page then traded this guitar back to Transperformance for a fourth guitar, which he dubbed “Eerie Dess,” due to its maroon red crackled finish. While we’re at some of the weird instruments in his collection, Page also used somewhat of a rare guitar, the Danelectro Longhorn double-neck. This thing has the weirdest body shape among all of the Jimmy Page’s guitars throughout his career. He personally nicknamed a third TransPerformance-equipped guitar “Pepto Bismol,” because of its pinkish finish. Arguably the most unusual axe he ever used is the 1967 Vox Phantom XII, which is a 12 String.

He used a second TransPerformance-equipped wine red Gibson Les Paul Standard Premium on the 1998-99 Walking Into Everywhere tour with Plant. He memorably used it in the 'Pride and Joy' video with David Coverdale, in the 1994 Unledded show with Robert Plant and then the accompanying 1995-96 world tour, and as recently as 2007 at the Led Zeppelin reunion concert. That opens all kinds of possibilities.' Page took possession of his first TransPerformance-equipped guitar, a goldtop Gibson Les Paul Standard, in late 1991 during the Coverdale-Page sessions.

But Jimmy Page’s early gear in Led Zeppelin was actually a continuation of his old Yardbirds setup. In November 1971, it was rotated 45 degrees so that it resembled a diamond on the guitar. Think Led Zeppelin gear, and you think of Les Pauls, doublenecks, and Marshall amps. Even the guitar’s jackplate, a square piece of acrylic plastic that helps mount the output jack to the guitar body, saw some extra action. Over the years, pickups and their covers were removed and replaced, both out of necessity and Page’s preference. The tip was properly replaced by March 1971. By October 1969, the pickup selector switch tip had fallen off, and was replaced with gaffers tape. He also had the original cream Kluson tuners replaced with gold Grover machine tuners. Jimmy Page then had the neck of the guitar shaved dangerously thin.
