Gibson Lil' Lucille Blues Hawk ....essentially a Blues Hawk with more bling and BB King's name on the case and the gold truss rod cover. Has a little bit of worming on the back, belt buckle rash not thru the finish, and there is a scratch on the neck as shown, at the top of the neck, very minor, guitar sounds and plays fantastic! The varitone with these P90 style pickups sound great ,and has a wide variety of useable tones. From the web I found this ( so it has to be true, right?) Everybody knows B.B. King's Lucille - has heard her scream, wail, and moan from "Everyday I Have The Blues" to the "Thrill is Gone." Well America's master bluesman has got a new girl--the B.B. King "Little Lucille." B.B. King embraces Gibson's 'Little Lucille'Inspired by B.B. King's infatuation with the Gibson Blueshawk, Gibson luthiers have designed a versatile instrument to B.B.'s specifications which includes a few of his personal touches. B.B's sophistication is reflected in the cream binding on the body and fingerboard, diamond inlay, and gold hardware and tuners. The single cutaway "Little Lucille" combines two Blues 90 pickups with a three-way position switch and, like the one and only Lucille, a TP-6 tailpiece and the six-position Varitone selector. "Little Lucille" has all the sounds you're looking for--Blues, Rock, Country, or Jazz. The only substantial differences in specification between the BluesHawk and Little Lucille are - Binding - Cream on body and fingerboardPosition marker for the Varitone controlBridge/Tailpiece - Tune-omatic/Tp-6Grover tunersFinish - Ebony - not available in red or blueHard case (as opposed to the gig bag supplied with the BluesHawk) Thanks for looking !!
