The man they named a guitar after. One of the greatest. I'd say Les Paul and Chet Atkins are two of the greatest!! May he rest in peace! :angelwings:

My brother knew him and his son!  Les signed my bro's LES PAUL CUSTOM RECORDING,years ago. At a Mcdonalds here in town belive it or not.  True guitar guys will know what and how rare that is. Since then he would stop by the club in New York every time he was there. 2-3 times a year.  A true inovator he will be missed! RIP Les.  :angelwings:
