1996 Gibson BB King Lucile es355. The pictures speak for themselves. Minimal normal wear on this guitar. This is a 30 year old guitar. Just put a fresh set of Ernie Ball 10s a this and set it up to my liking. it plays and sounds beautiful. In my opinion this belongs in the Gibson museum. Please message me with any questions you may have.
