Yes, the news of Les Paul's death has been the topic of several threads. I believe they've been moved to Open Mic, since they are more about this legendary man than about Acoustic Guitars, which we discuss in this forum.

Default Les Paul dies at age 94

I apologize up front if this is not the proper place for this but I wasn't sure where to put it...

I just saw the news that Les Paul died yesterday. What a legend. I am sure he will be sorely missed by many guitar lovers.

Go to Gibsons site. They have a great tribute and a 10 minute video that is excelent.
It was great to have him so long.
