The Edge has paid tribute to Les Paul, pioneer of the electric guitar.

'A legend of the guitar and a true renaissance man. Les Paul disproves the cliche that you can only be famous for one thing. His legacy as a musician and inventor will live on and his influence on Rock and Roll will never be forgotten.'
The Edge.
