  • Les Paul vs. Fender: The Men Who Changed the Electric Guitar

    Les Paul vs. Fender: The Men Who Changed the Electric Guitar
    12 Oct 2026
    In their own very different ways, Les Paul and Leo Fender revolutionized the sound, design, and possibilities of the electric guitar and their paths would lead to influence and riches beyond what either could have imagined. But how much of the story we’ve been told is actually true? How much is fact, and how much is mythmaking, marketing, and legend? On this episode of the Monday Music Club, Will Anderson is joined by Cory Wong to pull back the curtain on two towering figures, explore the rivalry and innovations that shaped modern guitar, and separate the history from the mythology.
