Indeed, that is Lucy, the 1957 Goldtop Les Paul refinished red. It first belonged to Rick Derringer, then to John Sebastian from The Lovin’ Spoonful, then to some Eric Patrick Clapton, then to George Harrison, then to a Beverly Hills burglar, then to George Whalin, then to Miguel Ochoa, then to George Harrison again, and now, to Dhani Harrison.
Is this Gibson Les Paul the one Clapton gave to George after recording that famous guitar solo on ‘While My Guitar…’?
