“Samsung wanted to buy my Les Paul. I didn’t want to sell it, so I threw out a stupid price and they said yes. I wish I hadn’t”: Billy Morrison tells the tale of two Les Pauls – one the bargain of the century, the other the one that got away

Billy Morrison plays his Gold Sparkle Gibson Les Paul Custom in front of a dark-red stage at MusiCares 2019.

In this edition of Bought & Sold, we welcome Billy Morrison, guitarist for both the Cult and Billy Idol, in for a chat about all things guitar.

This is a life-in-gear conversation: first guitars, dream electric guitars, and what sort of advice Morrison would give any player when buying an instrument. And, of course, no conversation like this would be complete without an answer to one of life's age-old quandaries: single-coils or humbuckers? Some struggle with that. Not Morrison.
