Lucille


Lucille is the name B.B. King gave to his guitars. They were usually black Gibson guitars similar to the ES-335. B.B. King wrote a song called Lucille in which he talks about his<b> guitar </font></b>and how it got its name. In 1949, during a performance in Arkansas, two men began to fight, knocking over a burning barrel of kerosene. The hall burst into flames, and the building was evacuated. Once outside, King realized that he had left his<b> guitar </font></b>inside so he went back into the burning building to retrieve his $30 Gibson<b> guitar. </font></b>Two men died in the fire, and King learned the next day that they had been fighting over a woman named Lucille. King named his<b> guitar </font></b>Lucille, as a reminder never again to do something as stupid as run into a burning building or fight over women.
