Les Paul would’ve been in 96 today (9 June). In honor of his birthday, Google has created what I think is their best Doodle of all time. It’s an interactive guitar. You can strum the strings with your mouse, or play it via your keyboard.
Need a little explanation of the “instrument”? The Huffington Post has a getting started article. And here’s my short little creation using the guitar Doodle. Practice, record something, and leave a link in the comments. With the musical talents in our family, this should be fun!
And if for some reason you are just now reading this and it’s not the 9th anymore, you can see the Les Paul Doodle here.
