But the inlays?
Yes, the inlays look different in these two photos, and neither look like the Beano inlays. :wah
So, it must be Beano! :ganz

Where is 0 2183 now?
I still think you are right on the moneyLook at a couple things that are similar here. First, over all, look at the way the grain runs into the center seam below the bridge on both guitars. The angle and the location is the same. I can't rule out the inlays either. Beyond that, there are a couple identifying marks I find similar. First, this little blister circle in between the knobs.
And the dark grain line under the tone knob.
Squiggle grain by the pickup ring.
It's 0 2183.
Thoughts?
Consensus is: It's still in England with the thief.
Why would Bonamassa even bring it up? He sounds like a 6 year old, "I know where it's at but I'm not telling"? I believe Bonamassa owns it now, he probably slipped up in the interview, saying it's somewhere on the east coast - probably in his own collection.

Lot's of Trolling & Baiting on here lately ! I hope who owns this guitar enjoys playing a Iconic Les Paul . IMO letting the public know would be a daily hassle probably diminish a lot of the fun of ownership .
I went to Milton Keynes once, it was closed....
