Guitar Giant Les Paul; Dead at 94

[Dan Corson]

I'm gutted: http://music.msn.com/music/article.a...5984&GT1=28102

Anyone who plays, has played, or will play a solid-bodied electric guitar owes everything to Les Paul. Not only did he invent it, but he could outplay even the most technical whiz.

A true innovator and legend; Les Paul is one of the greatest losses the music world has known or is likely to EVER know.

[Gideon Quinn]

Yes indeed, i heard about this earlier.

Thanks for the Guitars, Mr Paul! This is a sad occasion but your legacy shall live on through your instruments.

[Beanovsky Durst]

Holy shit... that's not good news.

He'll rock on heaven! Thanks for giving us the gift of electric guitar.

This is really sad. I remember learning about this guy in my music class years ago. He was amazing. He will be sorely missed.
