• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!

I have first-hand information that Mr. Page has drastically taken down at least one of the necks of his Les Pauls. Perhaps this is even common knowledge. A '58 would be a logical choice. Anyone know which of his guitars he did it to?

I was astounded by the size of my '06 R8's neck when I first got it in '07, but quickly adapted to it and even learned to love it. The guitar is very full sounding and many swear the size of the neck has a lot to do with it. I just like it!

Jimmy Page's number 1 Les Paul is a 1959 that he bought from Joe Walsh.

The neck was already shaved before Page got it.
