Les Paul’s birthday. Les was a jazz, country and blues guitarist but he was probably best known for his incredible innovations - among them, the solid-body electric guitar. Though he sadly passed away in 2009, his legacy lives on in the many musicians who choose to use the instrument he pioneered. If it weren’t for Les guitars, the world would have missed out on some amazing licks and riffs.
