Any help guys?
(P.s Ive already done les paul for the pre 50s and cant use john cage.)


Buddy Holly was doing some pretty slick stuff. Les Paul was the pioneer of sound on sound recording and the electric guitar. Leo Fender, and as was mentioned before Paul Bigsby,Nathan Daniel from Danelectro and Tom Jennings of Vox. George Delmetia Beauchamp who is given credit in many circles as inventing the first electric guitar dubbed "The Frying Pan" and was the a co-founder of National Stringed Instrument Corporation and Rickenbacker guitars. Most of these guys were before the 50's. Check out Alvino Rey and his talking pedal steel guitar. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xc2t2r ... -pup_music


Very interesting! Good facts man. Absolutely you could write on Buddy Holly.

There also was Joe Meek who started his avante garde recording techniques in the 50s.He is best known for producing the weird effects on "Telstar" by The Shadows? and the heavy percussion on "Have I The Right" by The Honeycombs.Who did "Telstar"?Something tells me that it wasn't The Shadows.Sadly Meek commited suicide circa 1966-67.

Inventors and developers they be but they are not "composers".

The criteria is apparently "Composers" that had impact on music technology.
It's kind of a tongue twister IMHO.
Of everyone that I can think of Les Paul would make the most sense to answer that question.

How about Ike Turner?

He was the first to use a tremolo/vibrato (whatever) on a Strat in such an extreme manner. His "wobbly" sound was due to his heavy -(right)-handed whammy bar technique. He also was pretty revolutionary on a band/recording level...people forget his solo career in the 50s, due to the greater popularity of the Ike & Tina Turner Revue of the 60s/70s.
