Les Paul Google Doodle

[Dark Drakan]

Anyone been playing around with this on the google search page today? Can either use the mouse to strum the strings or use the button underneath and enable numlock and play notes with numbers on keyboard. Anyone found any good ones to play yet? ​

Every keyboard should have a numlock key id have thought.

 

[Mr Anderson]

The num lock is generally on the calculator part of the keyboard

 

[Vergil'sBitch]

I'm on a laptop, and honestly, there is no calculator bit. (Unless I'm a complete n00b and i don't know how to use it which sounds about right)

Right next to F12 NumLock/Scroll Lk. Hoping they give this Google Doodle its own site like they did the PacMan one due to popularity.

I've seen that, but there are no number keys to go with it (that work anyway).

 

[Haven]

Damn, if I knew about the num lock thing I would have actually played around with it Xo.

You just used the regular numbers across the top of the keyboard (didnt have to be those usually on the right hand side).

 

[Vergil'sBitch]

then is there a point in my laptop having a num lock? *ish confused*

Not really no.

I know this is old but many people missed it the first time around and after it was so popular Google have hosted the Les Paul Google Doodle permanently.

So the Les Paul Google Doodle is available for good.

Easier to play the notes by clicking the box underneath the guitar and using the number keys to play the notes.

Its in honour of Les Paul so technically he came up with it (solid-body electric guitar), google just turned it into digital format.

Used to be able to turn the strings off and only have the box you type the numbers in to play the notes but think its been removed for the permanently hosted one. Though can still use the numbers to play the songs (easier than using the strings if you dont know how to play guitar). Its only the doodle thats hosted so cant use it as search function anyway so thats not an issue anymore.
