Les Paul : June 9, 1915 – August 13, 2009



Today is truly a sad day in music history. Guitar legend Les Paul passed away last evening, August 12th, at the age of 94 due to respiratory failure from pneumonia.

Mostly known for being the father of the electric body guitar, Les was also the pioneer of multi-track recording. His contributions to both the guitar and maybe even more so multi-track recording changed music as we hear, play, and record it today. A true genius, Les Paul will be greatly missed.

Rest in Peace Les Paul
