Remembering Les Paul on his 100th Birthday, June 9, 2015


Recommended Posts

Guess I will need to crank up my Les Paul tonight. Kids have swim practice tonight so I have a good hour where they won't bitch for me to 'turn it down'

Here are some of my personal pics (Probably 1995):

 

Me, my dad and Les Paul chatting after a show looking at his Log guitar in a book I brought for Les to autograph:

Thanks but it looks like I need to clean my scanner. Plus like I said these were taken with a disposable 35mm camera and cheaply printed. But hey it was a great night!

Well Hell! Even Les had a Bigsby on his guitar!

 

Time to start saving!

I saw him play 3 different guitars over a handful of shows (from 1994 to 2009), all slight variations of the Les Paul Recording model and all with Bigsby trems.
