Every time I glance at this thread title my mind is giving me this:
1980 Tokai LS-80
The real guitar is a ‘59 Fender Tele - hardly a ‘cheap guitar’. It was also once the property of Jeff Beck who used it extensively with the Yardbirds. It’s alleged by some that *this* is the Over Under Sideways Down guitar (young uns might want to check that out on YT - and then try playing it...).
If this was one of those “fabled” Les Paul Standards from the same era, instead of the negativity there would be pant creaming about flame maple and sunburst finishes. But because it’s a Fender somehow it has to be cheap - perhaps there’s less Unicorn Tears used in the process of building one...
Sneer all you want but a reissue of this guitar is long overdue AND the really exciting piece of this puzzle is that Jimmy has had the real guitar restored. That for me is far more bloody interesting than any sunburst Pudding. I want to see the man play it again - and if the rumours are true that he and Plant are planning another Zeppelin or Zep-based outing, this could be brilliant.
As you all were - back to the negativity...
