And if you call it a Lester and say it plays like buttah, that’s twice as bad!
Plays like ghee.
What's his name again?
Total contrast to a consummate gentleman and far superior guitar player........Chet Atkins.
In some of the videos where they have been a duo on shows (although they did 2 albums together) he does his utmost to try and spoil Chet's solos with silly little quips and guitar tomfoolery......because he couldn't stand not being in the limelight for 2 seconds.......he also quips and snipes ........Chet just smiles and carries on playing ten times better.
Mary Ford had a gutfull of him and ran away.
He did design a great guitar tho'.
Les didn't 'invent' the solid body electric, nor, ironically, the Les Paul, just his 'log' - the person who usually gets the credit for designing the Les Paul is Ted McCarty - so perhaps people should nickname them 'Teds' rather than 'Lesters'?
