    why has jimmy page's telecaster sold more les pauls than any other guitars

    ChatGPT said:
    That’s a great question — it’s one of those fun contradictions in rock history.
    Jimmy Page is most associated in the public imagination with a Gibson Les Paul Standard, especially his famous “Number One” (a 1959 Burst) that he played through most of Led Zeppelin’s career. However, the guitar that actually defined Led Zeppelin’s early sound — including the first album and many iconic solos like Stairway to Heaven — was his 1959 Fender Telecaster, originally given to him by Jeff Beck.
    Here’s why his Telecaster ended up “selling more Les Pauls” than any other guitar:
    1. Image vs. Reality
      • On recordings like Led Zeppelin I and Stairway, he used the Telecaster.
      • On stage, especially once Zeppelin became huge, he switched to the Les Paul. The look of Page with a sunburst Les Paul became iconic.
    2. The Les Paul Revival
      • In the late ’60s, Les Paul Standards from the ’50s were out of production and not especially popular.
      • When Page (along with Clapton, Peter Green, Mike Bloomfield, etc.) started wielding Bursts on arena stages, demand skyrocketed. Page’s live image in particular drove the revival of the Les Paul.
    3. The Irony
      • Fans chasing “Page’s sound” bought Les Pauls, because that’s what they saw him playing, even though much of the early sound they loved was created with the Telecaster.
      • So, Page’s Telecaster indirectly sold more Les Pauls than almost any marketing campaign Gibson could dream up.
    Essentially: his Telecaster made people fall in love with a sound, and his Les Paul made them buy a guitar.
    Would you like me to break down exactly which Zeppelin tracks were Tele vs. Les Paul? That might make the irony even clearer.

    Perfect — let’s map it out. Jimmy Page was pretty fluid with his gear, but here’s the general consensus from interviews, session notes, and fan analysis:
    The Telecaster Era (1959 Fender Tele, gift from Jeff Beck)
    • Led Zeppelin I (1968–69)
      • Good Times Bad Times → Telecaster
      • Communication Breakdown → Telecaster
      • Dazed and Confused → Telecaster (with bow experiments live, too)
      • How Many More Times → Telecaster
      • Pretty much the entire album was cut on the Tele.
    • Early Sessions / Yardbirds
      • He used the Telecaster throughout his Yardbirds tenure (1966–68).
    • Led Zeppelin II (1969)
      • Whole Lotta Love → Telecaster
      • Heartbreaker → Les Paul (one of the first appearances)
      • What Is and What Should Never Be → Telecaster
      • Bring It On Home (solo) → Telecaster
    • Led Zeppelin IV (1971)
      • Stairway to Heaven (solo) → Telecaster (the most famous Tele solo in rock history).
    The Les Paul Era (1959 “Number One” Burst, bought from Joe Walsh)
    • Led Zeppelin II (1969)
      • Heartbreaker → Les Paul
      • The Lemon Song → Les Paul
    • Led Zeppelin III (1970) onward
      • He began leaning heavily on the Les Paul, especially live.
      • The electric backbone of Zeppelin’s big riff songs (Immigrant Song, Black Dog, Rock and Roll, The Ocean) were Les Paul.
    • Physical Graffiti (1975)
      • Kashmir → Les Paul
      • The Rover → Les Paul
    Other Notables
    • Danelectro 59 DC → Kashmir, In My Time of Dying (used live and in studio for alt tunings).
    • Double-Neck Gibson EDS-1275 → Stairway to Heaven (live), The Song Remains the Same.
    👉 The Irony in Full:
    • The Telecaster gave the world Stairway’s solo, Whole Lotta Love, and the entire first album.
    • The Les Paul became his stage identity, so fans bought Bursts thinking that’s how he got those tones.
    • In reality, Page’s Telecaster probably sold more Les Pauls than Les Pauls did themselves.
    Would you like me to make a track-by-track cheat sheet (like a table) of all Zeppelin studio albums with the most likely guitar used? That could be a killer quick reference.

    Virker ganske spot on for meg iallfall. Det har jo vært ganske godt kjent lenge at det var en Telecaster på I, men jeg ble litt mer overrasket når jeg først fant ut at II ikke bare var med en LP. Litt vanskelig å akseptere at Whole Lotta Love er en Tele, men i det minste har man alltid "hatt rett" angående Heartbreaker. 🧐
