My sound company provided the stage for a Blues Concert at the Kentucky Horse Park 10 years back or so. BB was the feature. He couldn't have been nicer. I actually went home and got a cherry 335 solid for him to look at. They were pretty rare, and look just like Lucille, but solid; not semihollow. He hooked it up; played it through the sound system, and invited me to play. Soon, his bass player and drummer were on stage. I switched to B-3.
Nice fellow I'm glad I got a chance to meet.
Yes, he offered to buy the 335 solid, but I kept it.
