Trivia

Guitarist for the heavy-metal band Guns N' Roses.

1/22/90: Created controversy after giving a profanity-laden acceptance speech at the American Music Awards.

Released two albums with his new band, Slash's Snakepit.

Before Guns N' Roses, was in a band called Road Crew with future GNR bandmates Duff McKagan and Steven Adler.

July 2001: Voted the West Midlands' best guitarist in Total Guitar Magazine's poll of the greatest British guitarists.

On the show "Kid Notorious" (2003), he plays himself, the voice of reason, next-door neighbor and good friend of Robert Evans (Kid Notorious). In real life, he actually is the next-door neighbor and good friend of Evans (although he says he is hardly the voice of reason).

His favorite book is "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" by Hunter S. Thompson.

Mother is clothing designer Ola Hudson. Her work includes costumes for David Bowie in The Man Who Fell to Earth (1976) and The Pointer Sisters.

Of Nigerian and English descent.

Has recorded with British heavy metal band Motörhead, American singer and longtime friend Lenny Kravitz and Michael Jackson.

As a child, he once lived next door to David Geffen.

Has Dual UK and US Citizenship.

Although he now currently plays authentic Les Paul Gibson guitars, the Les Paul guitar that Slash played on Guns N' Roses debut album "Appetite For Destruction" is actually a Max Webster copy of a 1959 Les Paul flametop.

He is a keen collector of vintage Les Paul guitars.
