That's a 355 style guitar that BB played.

[@AlamoMusic]

You are correct^ this is my bad. Pinning this comment, appreciate the correction.

[@ronmoore1219]

[@AmbientMelancholy]

Beautiful guitar 👍

[@robertsaltzman7979]

0:02 Greatly enjoying & appreciate yr plethora of videos. u mentioned ur done with potentiometers. Does this include push/push pot on Pro II Strats? Seems like a gd enhancement

[@johneufrazio8349]

Great JOB ! !

[@jdfolbre]

I'm enjoying the podcast

[@zororosario]

Maybe the perfect studio recording guitars that has so many features that would be on a Les Paul Recording, this just cuts to the frequency you need or desire. Nice demo when you did the varitone features 👍❤️

[@stephensmith799]

I’m pleased to have an earlier Lucille. The two pick-up position and Varitone positions 1-2-3 sound wonderful. The other positions are great for reggae skanks and funk. Probably the best guitar ever; certainly the most versatile. Well made too.

[@acevent5759]

When you guys do videos, you need to show its versatility of the guitar as well. like That guitar is not just for playing B.B. King music, they are great for rock and Alternative too. so it would be cool if you guys could actually demonstrate that.

[@1970sman]

Beautiful Pony 👍

[@chicagobluesangels8547]

Bro essential BB King 49 tru 62 complete recording is what you need period

[@andrewwheelerguitar]

It’s amazing how much better these sound in person. There are some guitars that really need a big room, a couple tube amps and mean blues chops to bring alive. YT vids sound so boring and ridiculously sterile.

[@ripw1]

I have the Epiphone BB King and love it but yes, this is way better (at 8x the price) Even on You tube you can tell the difference and quality of the tone. Fine instrument!

[@dudley509]

Me too.
Love my Epiphone BB Lucille

[@TLBJ24]

Ditto. I own the Epi version, but just broke the bank and bought the Gibi. Happy I did! Love it! Worth money as you can find then used now around $4.5 - 5K. Steal expensive, but worth it!

[@DG-bb1jz]

Did he ever play a 355 w those inlays?

[@haroldcrane5908]

How much is Lucille?

[@ShamanicSavant]

I want one :)

[@The_sinner_Jim_Whitney]

Isn't Lucille a 345 or 355?

[@AlamoMusic]

Yes, it’s a 355, made a mistake. Sorry bout that.

[@justinsiler866]

I wish you guys would just give the retail price for the guitars you demo 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@ripw1]

Nobody sells at retail price

[@charlesbolton8471]

There’s a link in the description.
It’s $6,999.

Sure they do especially if it’s a Gibson Custom Shop model.

[@rexrathtar3893]

You say ES-335, but it's a 355 (which is, of course, based on a 335, but, you know, varitone).

[@AlamoMusic]

Yes, you got it. 355, not 335.

[@rexrathtar3893]

Cheers, Cooper. Nice video and great playing!

[@banjomandan7199]

Wow! 355, not 335.

[@AlamoMusic]

Yes, pinned a comment up top, my mistake.
