For No Quarter album Page actually used 6 acoustic and electro-acoustic
guitars. Here's a list of  all of them:
The 12/6-string Ovation electro-acoustic doubleneck: used in Gallows Pole,
Nobody's Fault But Mine, When The Levee Breaks, Wonderful One, That's The
Way and Four Sticks.
The 12/6-string plus mandolin Washburn electro-acoustic triple-neck: used
in The Battle Of Evermore (it wasn't the Ovation, Theolyn!)
The 12-string Washburn electro-acoustic: used in No Quarter
The 6-string Ovation electro-acoustic: used in Friends
The 6-string Martin D28 *acoustic*, which I believe is his trusty one used
during acoustic sets in 1970s: here used in City Don't Cry and The Rain Song
The unidentified 6-string electro-acoustic used in Wah Wah. Anyone?

Hope this helps.
