hecube Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 I remember reading that, a few months after Bonham's death and LZ's breakup, Jimmy asked his guitar tech to get his #1 Les Paul and it couldn't be found at first. Apparently, Jimmy felt that he would hang it up for good if the guitar didn't reappear which it finally did. Is there any more to this story?

SteveAJones Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 When the guitar tech went to get it he found the case was empty, however it was located shortly afterward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaiser Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 It was located in Alestair Crowley's boney fingers & smothered in mudshark entrails. Not true but if it makes the story more satisfying... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperStatic Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 If memory serves Jimmy implied someone was "fooling" around with it. But exactly in what way I'm not sure. I got the impression that who ever was doing the "fooling around" intended to make money off it in some fashion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure, I got the impression it was a roadie or some one responsible for its keep. But again, its been a long time since I read about it, so all I remember for sure is Jimmy making the comment about someone fooling around with it when they shouldnt have been.

Jahfin Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Nothing to do with Page but for those that may have missed it, here's another cool Les Paul story, this one involving Peter Frampton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not true but if it makes the story more satisfying... We'll go with this explanation I think. It sounds very Zeppelin-esque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
