The first time I heard the Les Paul Trio, it opened my eyes to a whole new world of how complex electric guitar playing could be.  My guitar is not a Les Paul, but I play it in tribute to the legend anyhow.  I believe he would be happy with the progression that electric guitar sound has made, as demonstrated by my high-gain rig.  I had a few slips in this E riff demo, but as Les Paul would say, you can correct that on the multitrack (another of his miracle inventions).  I would not be able to work on my in-progress metal opera in my basement were it not for the multitrack recorder and Les Paul's other great contributions to modern music.
