       Les Paul made a solid body prototype, which was known as The
       Log. Les Paul had approached Gibson in the year 1945 with this
       prototype but this idea was refused, but then again in 1951 Les
       Paul and Gibson worked together and Les Paul's innovative idea
       gave birth to a marvel that rocked the music world. The line of
       models for the Gibson hollow-body electric guitars provided
       ideas to create Gibson Les Paul, which differed from Fender in
       having a more curved body and a glued-in neck.
       There are different controversies regarding the role of Les Paul
       in Gibson. One of the controversies is that the president of
       Gibson Corporation approached Les Paul and asked him for the
       right to print his name on the headstock of the guitar so that
       they could increase the sales of that specific model and name it
       Gibson Les Paul.
