Gibson Les Paul Deluxe "No. 3"
Jimmy Page started using the 1969 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe 'No. 3' ca. August 1970, presumably as a replacement for the 1960 Gibson Les Paul Custom 'Black Beauty' according to this article.
Having purchased it from Mike Rudd in Memphis, Tennessee after his "Black Beauty" Gibson Les Paul was stolen, the guitar, which had started its life as a Goldtop Les Paul Deluxe, had been fitted with double humbuckers that had replaced its original minihumbuckers, was painted red and was later fitted with a B-bender mechanism.
The present of this guitar is viewed in the Led Zeppelin's reunion Celebration Day Live at 02 Arena in 2007, it's seen with the full-size humbuckers with black rings and the B-bender system, here's a clip from this exact reunion where the system, paintjob, humbuckers and tuner can be seen as described before: https://youtu.be/rCBXd1uXPVA?t=6022
