B.B. King Lucille

Epiphone

collapse expand iconDescription

The Epiphone B.B. King Lucille was inspired by the various Gibson ES models the blues legend played over the years - all of which were named Lucille. Standout features that make this Lucille such a stunning guitar and loving tribute include gold hardware, Grover Rotomatic tuners, a Graph Tech nut, ebony fretboard with pearloid block inlays, a brass truss rod cover with B.B. King’s name engraved on it, a mother of pearl Lucille inlay on the headstock face, a TP-6 tailpiece with fine tuners and a semi-hollow body with a maple center block to reduce feedback. Unlike most semi-hollowbody guitars, the B.B. King Lucille’s top doesn’t have any fholes; B.B. himself requested this feature to help further reduce the possibility of feedback. The electronics are equally impressive, with a six-position Varitone switch, a pair of Alnico Classic PRO humbucking pickups wired to CTS potentiometers and stereo and mono output jacks for maximum flexibility. An EpiLite case is also included.
