(Raymond Neupert, WRN) The first ever Les Paul Gibson guitar is going up for auction.

Waukesha native Les Paul pioneered the modern electric guitar, among other inventions. The Number One Gibson Goldtop is being sold by Paul's son Gene through Christie's auction house and is expected to bring in over 100-thousand dollars.

Paul made multiple improvements to the way electric guitars were made alongside his invention of multitrack recordings, which are now standard in music production.
