The instrument was one of two instruments purchased by Page. One being his iconic Gibson Red  Les Paul and the second being this Gibson Firebird III that  Page owned and used until the mid to late '70s until it was passed to fellow Led Zeppelin band member John Bonham after Page lost a drinking game with his drummer. Bonham in turn later gifted the instrument to the son of his business  partner as a birthday gift  in 1978 and it has been in his custody since.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eVerification\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003ePersonalised COA From Paul Davis whom was gifted the Instrument by John Bonham \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003ePersonalised Letter From Paul Davis detailing the instruments back history \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eVarious published and online media discussing the Jimmy Page Firebird \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eEmail verification from Tom Keckler, luthier to B.B.
