Birth of the Page Telecaster
There is an amazing story about the Dragon Tele. In 1961, Owen bought a 59' Tele with $107 and soon gave it to Jeff Beck, who was Owen's band mate in Deltones. In 1965, Jeff took this particular Page Telecaster guitar to Yardbirds as his back selection for a Gibson LP. Jeff altered the initial white Bakelite pickguard of the 1959' Tele into a handmade black colored pickguard. In August 1966 when Jeff departed from Yardbirds, he handed this specific instrument, a relatively pricy guitar in those days, to Page. Page had taken the Dragon Telecaster from Yardbirds to Led Zeppelin as his primary instrument. The Dragon Telecaster didn't diminish from eyesight until in April 1969 he acquired the "number one" Gibson LP from Joe Walsh. In 1967, Jimmy Page completed an excellent change on to this electric guitar, painting an orange, red and green dragon on the ash body and also substituting the black pickguard into a clear acrylic pickguard using a sheet of diffraction grating film underneath. Then, the well-known Dragon Tele appeared in electric guitar history.

Page Telecaster Headstock
The headstock of the genuine Dragon telecaster is a Fender 59' telecaster headstock, however, for unidentified cause, Page wiped the original logo off, and therefore we have no logo on the headstock of our custom-made instrument.
Page Telecaster Pickguard
The initial pickguard was said to be a see-through pickguard having an aluminum foil below it to create a mirror effect. But the foil is likely to darken as time passes, thus we supply a mirror pickguard to achieve an ideal effect, and it appears much nearer to the genuine guitar.
