Gibson has unveiled its latest signature guitar tribute to BB King and it is a showstopper fresh out the Murphy Lab to commemorate the King of the Blues’ legendary performance at the 1974 championship fight between Mohammed Ali and George Foreman.
The BB King ‘Rumble in the Jungle’ ES-355 is the Murphy Lab doing Murphy Lab things and it is a serious semi-hollow electric guitar for the serious collector – a typically forensic replica of the 1974 ES-355 that BB King favoured before Gibson made him his own Lucille in 1980.
