British blues rock guitar ace Chris Buck was recently reunited with Bernie Marsden's $1 million 'The Beast' Les Paul, when he was given the opportunity to play it on stage for the second time.
The late Whitesnake guitar great, whose influence spans generations of blues and rock guitar players, bought the 1959 Les Paul Standard in 1979 for £600. He played it relentlessly and used it to record every one of his Whitesnake guitar parts, including the singing-into-your-hairbrush classic Here I Go Again, which he co-wrote with David Coverdale.
