Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built around a double-cutaway semi-hollow body and two Custombucker humbuckers, the B.B. King Lucille Legacy offers a broad set of tone-shaping controls in one right-handed, six-string guitar. Its six-way mono Varitone switch works alongside individual volume and tone controls, 500K CTS pots, and Bumblebee capacitors for detailed adjustment. The SlimTaper mahogany neck, 22-fret ebony fingerboard, and 24.75-inch scale make its playing layout clear and familiar under the hands. A Custom Shop hardshell case is included.
