    He made some awesome guitars and leaves a legacy of guitar music made on his instruments. What a magnificent legacy to leave to the world.

    I've just got my handcuffs and my truncheon and that's enough.

    I was bought a Squire Stratocaster at the age of 14.

    But as the years went by, I realised that what I really wanted was a Gibson Les Paul. The guitar that's underlined popular music for decades.

    RIP.
    Pity. I have no understanding of the word. It is not registered in my vocabulary bank. EXTERMINATE!

    One day I will have lots of guitars, and the Les Paul will be top of my list.

    A legend, who changed the sound of music forever, and he lived to a ripe old age to see it. Rock and roll salutes you, sir.

    Rest in peace.



    Beautiful.
