In 2007, Les Paul received a special award, the National Medal of Arts from President George W. Bush.

One of the Beatles, Paul McCartney, said “I visited him in New York….the magic is still there.” He said more, “the new ideas he brought to the electric guitar are astounding.” And he said it all with joy, “Les is truly one of the greats.” Sadly Les Paul died on August 13, 2009 at the age of 94.

Real Fact!
