Google Celebrates Les Paul's 96th Birthday!

Google has come up with an awesome doodle to celebrate the 96th Birthday of guitar genius Les Paul. The co-creator of the Gibson Les Paul guitars. Any guitar enthusiast worth their salt would know Les Paul.

Whats so amazing about this doodle?? You can play it!! Hover the mouse on the strings to make beautiful guitar music.. or something close. I'm still trying to figure out how to play it to make something resemble the Slash's November Rain guitar solo!

Click on the keyboard (highlights to red) to enable you to play from your keyboard.

Update: Here is what Google has to say about its doodle.
