Epiphone - B.B. King Lucille Bone White
The semi-hollow shape of the B.B. King Lucille Bone White electric guitar adds character. At high volume, it delivers quite surprising clarity. The tone remains balanced, without too much resonance. Depending on the amp settings, the timbre changes considerably. With accentuated bass, it becomes warmer. A high setting reinforces the brilliance. The varitone adds even more acoustic diversity. On a more saturated amp, this reference retains a beautiful definition. Its Alnico Classic PRO pickups reveal all the nuances of the game.
