You are incorrect sir.

I don't know the answers to you question. BTW you missed a great jam session on the 4th. It was old home week. Got to play with my old drummer and good friend Rick Haywood. Guy is amazing.

Who single handedly turned Fender amps fortunes around in the 80's (or sometime around then) before forming his own amp company?
Tip: Before this he did various mods on Marshall and Fender amps.

Damaged, the question was what did Les Paul name his guitar. It was called "The Log". He cut the sides off an acoustic guitar and attached them to a ugly piece of wood which contained all the pickups and electronics and such.
