Lucy (Albert King guitar)

Albert King in 1978 with the second Lucy, made by Dan Erlewine. Note the inlay on the head ("Lucy") and on the neck ("Albert King").

Lucy is the name given to the Gibson Flying V and a series of copies owned by blues guitarist Albert King. King apparently picked the Flying V (at a time when few other guitarists did[1]) because of its style, and in return helped make it famous.[2]
