Description

One of the most iconic and recognizable guitars of all time....Here's a 1981 Gibson BB King Lucille Custom in Ebony finish. These do not come up often! And this one is from the first run of the model. The specific model is a stereo ES-355. The guitar is just about mint! It's labeled a 'second,' but there's nothing visible as to why. So clearly something very minor. The guitar has a great neck, and couldn't play any better. Easy playing action....easy enough to try BB licks (good luck)! Frets are in good shape as well. Both original Pat No pickups are balanced, clear, and full of life. Sounds spectacular clean. The guitar has two outputs and a 6-way varitone switch for stereo options. The tones are endless!!
