Description

We rarely get to see a Jimmy Page Number Two, ...and an Aged & Signed one at that. No wonder: it is one of the most legendary replicas of the Gibson Custom Shop ever. We are therefore all the more pleased to be able to offer you this specimen with the single-digit serial number 4. The guitar is modeled exactly on the 1959 Burst that Jimmy Page acquired in 1973 as an addition to his “Number One” Les Paul. Unimaginable today: the Led Zeppelin guitarist modified the electronics of the then unmodified guitar regardless of losses and so the replica model also has plenty of split and out-of-phase options, which you can operate via push/pull pots and two extra buttons under the pickguard. As Jimmy didn't even shy away from grinding the neck thinner on the original, a slim, Slim-Taper-like profile also invites you to take off. Although the headstock signed by him and the low serial number make this Number Two the ultimate collector's guitar we wouldn't recommend it as a showcase piece. It is far too much fun to play. In terms of sound it combines warmth and balance with sensational vibration behavior. Only the ground wire cable had to be re-soldered, otherwise the guitar is in top condition. Play “Kashmir” once and you won't want to give this Paula back - especially as you can experiment endlessly with the sound.
