Prologue
? ...specifically, a Gibson Les Paul.
Though the Les Paul is a perfectly respectable instrument that long predates any nerdy associations it may have picked up over the years, I feel obligated to note that it’s also somewhat notoriously the model of guitar that the main character of K-On! plays. A sudden boom in electric guitar sales in early 2010s Japan is often attributed to that show, with the Les Paul in particular supposedly having had quite the sales boost. What I’m getting at with all this is that while I can’t assert that this was specifically intended to be a K-On! reference, I like to think that K-On! was at least indirectly responsible for the choice of brand.
