Jimmy Page 1969 EDS1275 replica is finished!
There are no accurate plans avaiable for this guitar. What we have is lots of research from multiple sources. We believe we have created a very accurate replica. Made from Brazilian mahogany (1 piece body and two oner piece necks). The body contours are referenced from Jimmy's guitar and Bernie Marsden's 1966 example. The tailppieces are set back as on JImmy's guitar. The inlays in the Indian Rosewood are Italian cellulose nitrate and the binding Butyrate.
For the pickups we sourced T'tops at the owners request and these are from Brandonwound which not only have the correct voicing but even the right bobbins with T stamped in the plastic. Unlike Jimmy's guitar the 6 string doesnt have uncovered pickups or the Seymour Duncan bridge humbucker., again at the owners request.
