B.B. King’s beloved Lucille was a Gibson semi-hollow body ES-355. This Celebrity Guitar was named after a woman who sparked a club fire that nearly claimed the musician’s life. King had safely escaped the incident but his guitar was forgotten inside. When he realised that it was not with him, King rushed back into the collapsing establishment to save it. From then on all of King’s Gibsons bore the moniker “Lucille.” But despite this, guitar brand Gibson files for bankruptcy.
