“In the weeks leading up to the show, Deryck and I talked about our mutual love for the Sex Pistols. That’s when we planned the special moment”: Sum 41's Deryck Whibley plays Steve Jones’ Sex Pistols Les Paul at the band's last-ever European show

After being played by Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong and Yungblud, it was time for Sum 41's Deryck Whibley to take Steve Jones' 1974 Les Paul Custom out for a spin on November 23 – in front of 42,500 fans at Paris' La Défense Arena, a performance which also marked the band's final European show.

The historic guitar, currently in the possession of Matthieu Lucas from the high-profile vintage guitar emporium Matt’s Guitar Shop, first caught Whibley’s attention when Armstrong played it a few months ago.
