The Little Lucille is a relatively recently designed (1996-2006) Gibson model designed mainly for blues players. It superficially resembles the Les Paul in that the body outline is similar. The ''Little Lucille'' was discontinued by Gibson in 2006. The ''Little Lucille'' is a variant on the Blueshawk that features a stop tailpiece and tune-o-matic bridge. The ''Little Lucille'' was endorsed by BB King 〔B.B. King embraces Gibson's 'Little Lucille'.〕 ==Construction== The ''Little Lucille'' has a number of distinctive features that distinguish it from virtually all other Gibsons. The ''Little Lucilles body outline is the same as a slightly earlier range of guitars - the Nighthawks (1993-1999) - but unlike the Nighthawks, the ''Little Lucille'' is a semi-hollow bodied guitar with twin f-holes and a flat (uncarved) top. Other distinctive / innovative features include: * 25.5 inch scale length (the same as many Fenders, Gibson's more typically have a 24.75 inch scale length) * Blues 90 pickups (a modified version of the P-90 pickup) * noise reduction circuitry which employs a dummy coil * a Varitone circuit (similar to that used on the Gibson ES345) - the Varitone circuit is a mid-cut/band-stop filter with a choice of five center frequencies * a light guitar - the body is made from poplar, capped with maple - the body is small and relatively thin and has two cavities * simple control set - master volume, master tone, three-way pickup selector, six-way rotary Varitone control switch 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gibson Little Lucille」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
