Chibson guitars are for people who care much more about the way a guitar looks (usually from a distance) and its (fake) image than they do about how a guitar sounds and plays. 🤷🏼♂️ If you want or need a reasonable quality cost effective guitar there are a multitude of much better options out there, but ultimately some people just want to make other people think they’ve bought a Gibson.

One thing that I like about the Lucille model is that because it doesn't have F holes, it comes with a back cover plate behind the volume & tone knobs and the switch, which makes repairs and modifications super easy, unlike other 335 type instruments where you are forced to fish everything through the F holes, which is way much more of a pain...

Too many snarky comments here. This guitar sounds great and the dude playing it did a great job of showing off the tonal range while playing soulful, tasteful licks. If it's not for you, move on. Gibson did nothing wrong here. (though I do agree that the editing did get out of synch a few times)

I’m a video guy by trade. Gibson can afford an editor who at least can do that. Also, lots of boutique builders who can make me something as good if not better for the same price as a factory Gibson 335. In fact, I ordered one for Xmas. Trolls will be trolls, though.

Am lucky enough to own a Lucille (the traditional, black one), which I bought in mint condition (ie, probably played once or twice max) for $2200, so a fantastic deal. I must confess I bought it more for its beauty and musical significance (and my own twisted aspiration of somehow sounding like B.B. King if I had the same guitar) than because I really “needed” one. Plus, it was just such a good deal. Funny thing is, I was disappointed at first. Found it hard to play, slow fretboard, hard to get the sound I wanted (I am used to strats, and humbuckers definitely require a bit of adjustment, not to mention the looooong sustain). Then I really set it up to my liking, learned (to an extent) to play it as I wanted; and I must say that now I would now never, ever part with it. It is, very simply put, an extraordinary sounding instrument. Unreal. In a league of its own. I now have two strats, a PRS McCarty (another stunning, fabulous-sounding guitar, but that’s another story...) and the Lucille - and I can honestly say I love the Gibson to death. Buy one if you get a good deal (obviously the $7000 Gibson recommended price is a rip-off...), you will NEVER regret it! Am in love with it now. Cheers all.

The street price is 5,5K for this one. Actually, is is a revamped version of the black Lucille in Alpine White, with a few stamps and engravings. The choice of JJ Nichols to swallow the pill is to attract younger generations (with $$). It would have probably been better to promote a brand new JJ Nichols signature model, rather than another BB King variation. Personnally, I am a bit tired of the signature models of dead heroes (BB KING, Jimi Hendrix, Rory Gallagher etc.) There are enough living ones without digging in their graves. And yes: the fine tuners are to get the right pitch in complement to the headstock tuners. The intonation is made by the screws on the Tune-o-matic bridge.
@78tag5 жыл бұрын
Yes, I was wondering what that BS was about getting the right intonation from those thumb screws? Didn't make any sense. It sounded to me like he was trying to convince himself about how great this guitar is. The set up and finish had better be perfect for the $ - that seems to be highly unlikely these days. Sorry to be negative but it is what is.
