You mean except for the Strats, the Teles, the Danelectros,  the vox's 
etc....The thing is that I've NEVER Slash with anything BUT a Les  Paul.

Fact:  Jimmy couldn't do it all with a Les Paul.  And  neither can Slash. 
Verdict:  JP every time.  But synonymous with a  Les Paul?  Not to me he 
ain't.

The whole point of the thread was that Jimmy wasn't listed by GIBSON  
themselves. When we all know Jimmy helped make the Les Paul as famous as it  
is. 
Slash came AFTER Jimmy Page, and does anyone know WHY SLASH plays a LP???  Well 
actually the topic was best solos using a Les Paul.
 
I can't comment much on Slash. However I think SIBLY's solo is better than  
Sweet Child O'mine! Although I like Slash's solo on the song, I just like 
Page's  better!  (personal opinion again, and as stated before. I'm  biased)

In all the video footage we have of Zeppelin live, the majority of the  time. 
Jimmy is playing a Les Paul.
 
Of course Jimmy uses many many diff. guitars. I think any artist of that  
magnitude does. It's just that I dont know how you cannot think of a Les Paul  
when you hear the name Jimmy Page!!
 
Maybe the word "synonymous" was the wrong choice. However Page once said  
something like the guitar was part of his body. If that isn't synonymous, I  
don't know what is. Anyway, I don't know if he was talking about the LP or just 
 
any guitar, AND I'm not trying to argue with you. I don't argue. I was just  
saying I agreed with someone else's comment. 
 
Peace,
