Guitars used by Vivian Campbell on Diamond Star Halos

Solid Body Electric Guitars

Gibson Les Paul Deluxe

Avg price: $2,486.33

This was Vivian’s first Les Paul. It started life as a wine red Deluxe and housed a pair of X2Ns in the ’80s, the hottest pickup DiMarzio made. It now contains a matched set of Seymour Duncan ’59s.

Says Campbell, “I was using DiMarzio X2Ns back then because I was playing through a JCM800 Marshall and there just wasn’t enough distortion in that amp, so I front-loaded it with really hot pickups and Boss overdrive pedals. With modern amps you don’t need to do that – there’s so much more saturation available.”

It has been since remade as an Epiphone Signature Model.
