This 1999 Gibson B.B. King Lucille Ebony is a highly respected signature model based on the Gibson ES-355, built to B.B. King's specifications. It's a semi-hollow electric designed for blues, jazz, soul, and classic rock, with several distinctive features that separate it from a standard ES-335 or ES-355.
