I am not a professional musician....just a hobby blues player always on a quest for sound. I came across this guitar by coincidence. I was aware that they have a Gibson version of Lucille, but I saw that Epiphone has a version of it also. The price difference is dramatical, play both models side by side and you will be blown away with the Epiphone version. The feel of the guitar is awesome. The pickups are great. The thing that blew me away is the vari-tone switch. I played this guitar clean and distorted and played around with the vari-tone switch and loved the sounds that i was hearing. You can get a really nice fat sound or a near screech sound out of Lucille. If you are into the classic rock blues type of sound or the B.B. King sound this is the guitar for you. Trust me you have to try this guitar out. I have played Les Pauls and Flying V's, but this version just blows those out of the water. I never really thought of ever buying a Gibson/Epiphone product, but I did and I do not regret it at all, this coming from a die hard Stratocaster and Telecaster owner/player

Designed by the Legendary King of the Blues himself, B.B. King, the Lucille is similar to the 335 semi-hollowbody,but without "F" holes. The result is a guitar with a very unique voice that's far less prone to feedback at high volume levels. It features all-Maple construction, a TP-6 fine-tuning tailpiece with a Tune-o-matic bridge for ultimate precise intonation, is voiced by two Alnico Classic Humbuckers and a six-posistion Vari-tone switch and stereo outputs. Cosmetics include Gold hardware, block fretboard inlay and her name inlaid in mother-of-pearl on the headstock.
