Les Paul was a pioneer of which type of guitar?

  • Acoustic

  • Solid-body electric guitar

  • Bass guitar

  • Semi-acoustic guitar

Answer

Solid-body electric guitars, as pioneered by Les Paul, utilize solid wood bodies instead of hollow or semi-hollow designs.

Les Paul's contributions revolutionized the world of electric guitars and continue to influence guitar design and sound to this day.
