1997 jimmy page les paul !?!?! thoughts and values

stevenguitars

hi all

 noticed a 1997 gibson les paul jimmy page model for sale and wondered 

a. whats the verdict

b. is it custom shop

c. whats the value

id appreciate any info as it would be a buy blind situation

stevenguitars

well it just sold!

so i guess it was priced right 

haha that was quick 

Forge

Non custom shop, ceramic pickups. The main interest is the artist signature and the wiring mods. The R9 is a much better guitar,

Doesn't it have a totally mad amount of switching/sound options? not a fan of too many personally. I wired my no 1 guitar for a vast amount of options, but eventually stripped right back to just 3 and it's perfect like that

Ceramic  pickups? Didn't expect that...

I didn't say that, I guess it was a communication breakdown.

These guitars are "an investment".
7 different people have told me this.

Ok - they all had a les paul jimmy page model for sale. But that doesn't mean it isn't true.

I'd much rather have the Number 1 replica.

-------------------------------------------------------

I'd rather have the No.2 replica - that's the one with 21 tone combinations and the switches under the fingerboard

Tried JP wiring scheme - tone robbing soab - ripped it back out & put a lovely shugs loom in but kept the out of phase option for greener moments

I'd really like a #2 so I could sell it and put a deposit on a house..!

Well if you like thin sounding Les Pauls then Mr Page is your man.

Played a few of these and they are average at best. But you do get a fancy case with a signature on the shroud, so it must be worth more.

Sounds like a case of 'What is and What Should Never Be'.
