Les Paul’s Original Black Beauty
Tom Doyle, who was Les Paul’s luthier and tech for 50 years, graciously opened his vault to give GP an exclusive look at the 1954 Les Paul Custom (also know as “Black Beauty”) that forged the design for all future Les Paul guitars. We also check out the newest Slick Guitars, review killer new gear from Fender, Fishman, MXR, Rocktron, B.C. Audio, and others. Plus! In-depth interviews with Maroon 5 6-stringer James Valentine, Nashville badass Jack Pearson, Flux master Adrian Belew, guitar-a-holic John 5, amp wizard Steve Grindrod, and more. We also translate Jaco Pastorius' "Teen Town" for guitarists, break down the pentatonic minor and blues scales, and teach you the right way to play Led Zeppelin's "Dazed and Confused." And much more!
