JIMMY PAGE DRAGON TELECASTER

Few guitars are as important to the history of rock as the Telecaster Jimmy Page used to create the iconic, genre-defining riffs of Led Zeppelin. Originally received as an undecorated gift from Jeff Beck, he used this 1959 Telecaster to unleash his larger-than-life riffage and fierce soloing upon the world. By mid-1967 he decided to strip the instrument down to bare wood and drawing on his art school training, repaint it himself with what became the iconic "Dragon" design. Page partially painted over the stripped 1959 Telecaster with darts and curls of green, orange, yellow, blue and red in a pattern that formed something of a swirling, psychedelic, vaguely Japanese dragon. The beast's flaming red horns and green head rest inside the blunt upper horn, green scales run down its neck as it breaks into a colorful abstraction that could include a cracked egg near the control panel and a tail that snakes into the upper bout from the lower.

To recreate this legendary instrument, Master Builder Paul Waller and Page collaborated in person to ensure each guitar perfectly matches the original. Page visited our Custom Shop in Corona, CA and personally painted a portion of the dragon design on each guitar. We're both pleased and proud to present this instrument that honors the man, his music and the guitar he used to create it.

JIMMY PAGE MIRRORED TELECASTER

Few guitars are as important to the history of rock as the Telecaster Jimmy Page used to create the iconic, genre-defining riffs of Led Zeppelin. Originally received as an undecorated gift from Jeff Beck, he used this 1959 Telecaster to unleash his larger-than-life riffage and fierce soloing upon the world. In February 1967, possibly inspired by Pink Floyd's Syd Barrett, he added eight round mirrors to the body of the guitar. By mid-1967 he decided to remove the mirrors, strip the instrument down to bare wood and, drawing on his art school training, repaint it himself.

To recreate this legendary instrument, Master Builder Paul Waller and Page collaborated in person to ensure each guitar perfectly matches the original. Page visited our Custom Shop in Corona, CA and personally signed each neck of the Jimmy Page Mirrored Telecaster. We're both pleased and proud to present this limited set of reproductions, honoring the man, his music and the instrument he used to create it.
