Slash is a stage name of Saul Hudson. Slash was born on 23 July 1965 in Hampstead and raised in the city of Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire.

It was released in April 2010 and ranked #1 on the Billboard charts.
When he was young boy, he dropped out of high school to focus on music. And in a Rolling Stone magazine article, he remarked:
My big awakening happened when I was fourteen. I’d been trying to get into this older girl’s pants for a while, and she finally let me come over to her house. We hung out, smoked some pot and listened to Aerosmith‘s Rocks. It hit me like a fucking ton of bricks. I sat there listening to it over and over, and totally blew off this girl. I remember riding my bike back to my grandma’s house knowing that my life had changed. Now I identified with something.
He also owns more than 100 guitars! One of his favorite guitars is Gibson Les Paul Copy. For amplifiers, he only uses Marshall amps and he used the new Marshall Vintage Modern 2466 amp for the recording of Velvet Revolver’s second album.
He ranked #2 (10 Best Electric Guitar Players of All-Time) on Time Magazine in August 2009. Gigwise also list Slash (Saul Hudson) on #21 of the “50 Greatest Guitarists Ever”.
