I'm no big jazz type fan BUT Les Paul was simply brilliant as if we didn't know that already.His contribution to Gibson guitars-helping create the most beautiful and sexy,curvy guitar on earth (all Les Paul models) is amazing. Let's never forget how without Les Paul our recording technology wouldn't be as far along as it is now.
Thanks Les-what a character and genius you were,we love you man!! RIP Dude and I hope you're rockin with your lovely wife up there in the next world :)
@thatOtherDude100 that's Les Paul, he created the solid body guitar everybody uses today. One of the biggest legends in music history. To say that he isn't playing for real is just wrong.
I had to take a look at your channel page to see just what kind of person doesn't know who Les Paul is. Funny it says you like classic rock too. Sorry to say, but just because it was made before you were born, doesn't make 90's rock "classic".
@YouGuysAreAHoles if you want to get technical as per straight-forward definition than 90s are classic. The definition of the word is that over time they have been decidely judged as the best of their kind (so the best of 90s=classic). If you want to use it in a Humanities (the class) type situation then the word classic probably wouldn't apply to any song of the 80s, 70s, 60s, etc either. Just thought I'd point that out since you ragged on that kid for his musical taste.
If google sent you here you've got a lot to learn about one of the worlds greatest guitar players. Neither Rock, Jazz, Country, or MUSIC would be what it is today without the great Les Paul!!
the government keeps an unknown BOX, hidden deep in Helms Deep down below never to be seed again. one day, man named Les(motha fucken) Paul stumbled across a guitar.
"What is this!"Les Paul says with excitement.
he picked up the guitar, and then it happened ...
BOOM! just started shredding like a motherfucker
but little did he know, he had chipped a small crack in the BOX of HEAVY METAL. which in do time... the box breaks free and opens our minds. Finally opening up new world of ..."""ROCK"""
and to think, without this man we probably wouldn't have 90% of the music we know today. at least not for a while, that is. RIP Les Paul, and thank you for all that you've done to help this world of music.
@Doppeldiva22 He did not design the lespaul,he endorsed it.That was gibson.Later in life after ted mcarty was dead he said he designed the guitar.He had other inventions he did create, like multitracked recordings.And was a hell of a guitar player.But only designed the trapese bridge(later replaced with tun-a-matic)For stability.If you look at his personal guitars they are les pauls only in shape.Things like Low empedence pickups.stereo jacks..etc.etc.Im a huge fan but he did not invent the paul
he was pretty advanced for his time, i think he was the only one who used to play fast (in other words, he was the precursor of shredding) and he invented the most famous guitar in the world... thx les paul
it really pisses me off that that freak michale jackson got 1 FUCKING month of press time afeter the sone of a bitch died, and Les Paul a man who done more for music than anyone before recieved nothing, except condolences from real fans. it pisses me off!! a
@jfkdjfd you're so right!! Just few people out there are aware of what this man has done in his life i.e. multitrack recording, solidbody guitar, fx, and so on. Les represents a pivotal point in the history of music and must be remembered and honoured forever. I only hope time will tell.
And this man is the most underrated guitarist of all time. Personally I have always preferred the SG and Strats to the Les Paul, but no one comes close to this man at his peak.
Good job Slash came up with a few new riffs to try out on the beastie mind you! RIP Les.. I'm sure the memory shall live on in the legendary guitar, to say the least!
What does what I'm capable of doing with a guitar have to do with this video? I don't see you asking people who say he's amazing to upload a video of them to compare.
powerslave1191- Nearly all of the great guitar players( Clapton Beck Slash...) say Les Paul is the master. You never hear the great ones say he's nothing special. Upload your shit. Lets see what you got.
