The Gibson Les Paul is one of the true icons of guitar, its sound and silhouette synonymous with the history and culture of rock 'n' roll.
Gibson was alive and well long before the advent of the Les Paul and even the electric guitar itself. But when the Gibson Les Paul came to life in the early 1950s, the company and the history of modern music was changed forever.
Christened by a musical polymath, the guitar was just one of the stings in Les Paul's bow. Hugely influential for his inventions in the field of recording, he would, perhaps more than any other single person, shape the future of the recording studio.
The Gibson Les Paul, of course, would be nothing but a hunk of timber and strings if there were nobody to bring it to life. Over the course of its almost 70 year history, it's been played by too many legends of rock and blues to mention.
