Today is a sad day in the world of the guitar. Les Paul, the "Wizard of Waukesha", has passed.People often use the word "prolific" to describe some of history's greatest guitarists and players. However, when their musical contributions are measured against Les Paul's, they seem all the more mortal - if not average.
A true "player's player", a ground-breaking innovator, and perhaps more than anything - a humble, sincere, and gracious man, Les Paul was a colossal and much-revered figure in the world of guitar.
Be assured that I'll be strumming a few tunes on my Les Paul today in fitting memory.
