I have one just like the black 2 pickup with gold hardware smack in the middle. Except it is the custom with the white binding.

Every guitar player around the world is having a sad day due to the loss of such a great man. Every engineer also owes him big-time. Music would not be what it is today without his contributions through the years.

I never met Les, but have a lot of friends who have worked with him and they all said he was something special.
