This is indead a sad day and I think I'm going to go home after work and pull my Les out of the closet, dust it off, pour a drink, light a cigar, and sit on the balcony and pick away at it for a while. I haven't played in 6+ months... Thats just too damn long.
A classic design... He will be missed... Unfortunately the consumer machine will make some good money on this... Anyway... Ima go pluck on my Ibanez Exotic Wood Series EW50MPSE Acoustic-Electric Guitar ...
I picked up my guitar today too as a tribute to the man who gave us what is my favorite guitar.. and, who undoubtedly paved the way for rock and roll music. Another little known fact, Les created an early prototype for multi track recording. Recording individual instruments then stacking them and playing them all together onto one tape.
