Alex Lifeson of Rush used a ton of Les Paul's... Howard Roberts model...

Alex is one of my fave guitarists (and he’s in my fave band too).

While I’ve never been a huge fan of Les Pauls, I just think it’s sacrilege to put a Floyd on one. :)

I love how they sound, but having picked up a few of them I know why Slash slouches.

RIP, Les.

Lifeson was a major influence on me growing up and later on my style of playing. A few years ago I was given a DVD of Rush performing live and during his solo on La Villa Strangiato I thought I was looking into a mirror.
