The Enduring Legacy of Les Paul in Music and Science

Les Paul was born 107 years ago on June 9, 1915, and each June we celebrate this legendary artist who did so much to change the face of music. Known for creating the solid body electric guitar and innovations in recording music, Les was not only a musician but also an accomplished inventor who could not stop tinkering with instruments, tools, and sounds to satisfy his curiosity about the world at large.
