Jeff Beck was not getting on with his Burns Trisonic, and blagged a blonde Telecaster from his Deltones bandmate John Owen. He used it with the Yardbirds before giving it to Jimmy Page in 1968 as thanks for getting Beck the Yardbirds gig. It became Page’s favourite guitar, used for all of Led Zeppelin’s debut album and the Stairway To Heaven solo. Page first decorated it with circular mirrors (shown left), but later created its most famous incarnation by painting on his own psychedelic dragon design.
