If one would listen and become familiar with Les Paul's total body of work, you would hear some of the most creative and technically precise guitar playing ever recorded, which,IMO, has never been matched.

additionally I have always been impressed with the breadth of his repertoire.

Yes he had his electronic devices, but nonetheless, the music needed to be played and no one did it better.

"additionally I have always been impressed with the breadth of his repertoire."

I once saw him do a 14 note arpeggio across two octaves in 6/8 time.

Riffs like that would make Joe Satriani blanch!
