How The Darkness Got Jimmy Page's Guitar
. Gibson: And you have a Gibson Custom Shop "Black Beauty" Les Paul especially made for Jimmy Page � but he returned it because it was too heavy for him? And you got it? Dan Hawkins: Yep. I call that my "Love is More Than a Feeling" guitar. It wasn't on that first album track, but it's on both other albums since and live for the song. I had the Bigsby taken off, and a hardtail put on. I had a Fishman Powerbridge pickup put on so I could switch to an acoustic sound. It's had an interesting life already, that Les Paul. I was waiting for delivery of a different humbucker to fit on it, but my then-guitar tech said he had a 'bucker that he'd taken out of one of Angus Young's SGs. He fitted Angus's old pickup, it sounded awesome, so I left it in. It's become my Page-enstein Les Paul. Check out the full interview here.
