The legendary Les Paul -- the Grammy award winning artist who invented the solid-body electric guitar later played by some of the greatest names in rock 'n roll -- died Thursday of complications from pneumonia at the age of 94.
Paul passed away at White Plains Hospital with his family and friends were by his side.
The use of electric guitar gained popularity in the mid-to-late 1940s, and then exploded with the advent of rock in the 1950s.
