Description
The Epiphone “Lucille” is based on the famously-named Gibson ES guitars that blues legend B.B. King used over several decades. It’s classy gloss Ebony finish, gold hardware, pearloid block inlays and bound tortoise pickguard make it instantly recognisable, and there are plenty of unique custom features that set it apart from a stock Epiphone ES-335 semi-hollow model.Boasting a LockTone bridge, TP-6 tailpiece with fine tuners, a semi-hollow body without f-holes (in order to reduce feedback), a six-position ‘Varitone’ switch and stereo/mono output jacks for maximum flexibility — it’s a lot of guitar for the money!Key Features Semi-Hollow Body — Yields an open and airy tone, enhanced by the bright-sounding layered Maple tonewoods.
