    "He nearly electrocuted himself to death at home in the 1940s, and in 1948 he was in a near-fatal car accident that shattered his right arm and elbow. But he famously told doctors to set it in the cast in a guitar-picking position so he could continue to play."

    RIP Les. My first really quality guitar was a LP Studio. Still have and love it.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me.
