25 most iconic guitars ever

16 Sep 2010

Gibson Les Paul Standard (1958)
If there’s one guitar that can claim as fine a pedigree as Fender’s Strat, it’s the Les Paul. There was no ergonomic styling here – just a gorgeous solid-body design. As Jimmy Page and Slash will both attest, it’s best played at knee level with the bridge humbucker feeding into a wall of Marshall amps.

The player
Although he’s often associated with his double-necked Gibson SG, Jimmy Page lorded over the Les Paul like few others. Sometimes with a violin bow.

    I can feel an argument coming on.  No PRS?  No Page double-neck?

    Double neck SG got a mention (see Jimmy Page on the Les Paul page). Interested to see who backs your PRS gripe... any takers?

    PRS? Might as well just bolt a neck onto a £2,000 coffee table. :-P

    Erm... You're Stuff, not Total Guitar. Confused.

    You should really leave this stuff (ha ha) to the experts. No PRS? Shame on you, you purveyors of all things shiny and classy.

    Light duty slotted angle shelving is a universal storage system, which can be widely used for working table, working cart, working bench, safety mesh deck and family storage.

    racking and shelving

    The structure of angle shelving is very simple and stable. The major component includes upright post, shelf, corner plate, bolts & nuts.
