garethr Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/8200385.stm Les Paul, whose pioneering electric guitars were used by a legion of rock stars, has died at the age of 94. I wonder what proportion of the world's population has heard music played on a Gibson Les Paul, not to mention a multi-tracked recording. http://www2.gibson.com/getdoc/edb29730-6645-4a86-a8b6-15dd93b0c4d7/LPTD-LHSCH1-Finish-Shot-jpg.aspx e0ffdwBUL78 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaveriK Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 The write up on him in classic rock is well worth a read. Plus he played on when others had faded and dribbled into their PJ's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
