The real crappy thing is he'll never get all the attention from the media in death that's been wasted on Jackson.

Wow this is a sad day in guitar history as we lost the second half of the two most in portent guitar creators in history and probably the original shredder to boot. Weird that even as we are celebrating what would have been Leos 100th birthday Les passes .Well all I can say who could ask for a better life and both names will live on for as long as guitars exist as they share equal title as the maker of the #1 guitar. It would be nice now if we get the greats to throw down a guitar festival in honor of the two guys they owe it all too. So PR guys from both companies should work together on this and do something special for the whole guitar community as I now players on both sides would kill to represent and this could be something very very special. R.I.P
