The B.B. King Lucille is built to pay tribute to one of the greatest blues legends, B.B. King. The beautiful semi-hollowbody electric guitar is based on the iconic "Lucille" that B.B. King played for decades, right up until his death in 2015. The Epiphone Lucille is built with a 5-piece maple body, which forms the foundation for the guitar's punchy and full tone.
A maple neck with an ebony fretboard ensures that "Lucille" has a comfortable and even playability along the entire fretboard. An Epiphone LockTone Tune-o-matic bridge provides wonderful sustain and precise intonation, and the Alnico Classic Pro pickups deliver the warm, vintage humbucker tone that works so beautifully for blues, jazz, and even rock.
B.B. King was known for his tone. The two Alnico Classic Pro humbuckers in the Lucille allow you to access the classic "Lucille" tone, but there is also the opportunity to explore other sounds. These pickups are based on Alnico V magnets, are encapsulated and potted to give you a meaty and noise-free sound. The pickups are connected to two volume controls, two tone controls, and a 6-position Varitone control, which gives you a wide range of sound options. The Varitone control is a vintage return to the original ES-355s from the late 50s, and it allows you to filter and scoop your midrange in different ways.
The B.B. King Lucille has many design elements that are inspired by the various Gibson ES models that B.B. King played. For example, there are no F-holes in the top, which B.B. King preferred to keep feedback to a minimum. Lucille is adorned with gold hardware from top to bottom, and Pearloid block inlays along the entire ebony fretboard give Lucille a classic look. There is even a brass truss rod cover with B.B. King's name engraved and a mother-of-pearl Lucille inlay on the headstock.
