The Ventures and the early surf rock bands are largely responsible for popularizing the electric guitar as a lead instrument. So we all really owe a lot to them.
If you're curious, check out their Live In Japan CD. It fucking rocks.

Hmm they did follow some years behind Chuck Berry, and then Duane Eddy but there were a lot of sax solos.
