In a live performance at Lupo's Heartbreak Hotel on May 19, 1995, Jeff Buckley is seen playing a Gibson 1974 Les Paul Custom Reissue. This guitar, which he purchased in 1995 from a shop in Wisconsin, was later displayed at The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and Museum alongside other personal items, including his clothing and handwritten lyrics. Additionally, Jeff received a Les Paul copy as a gift for his 14th birthday, as noted on GroundGuitar.

Just couple of month before his death, Jeff purchased a dark green Talman TC620. The guitar had a pearloid pickguard, and P-90 pickups.

It is quite possible that this wasn’t Jeff’s first Talman, as there are photos of him playing a grey TC620 couple of years prior to this.
