Albert King's '58 V

The guitar behind the southpaw blues maestro that inspired countless others to do the same...​

 

Born in 1920's Indianola, soon to become one of the founding fathers of electric blues and the three Kings trio.

With his big tone and rubbery bends, he was one of the most influential bluesmen of his time inspiring the likes of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jimi Hendix, Eric Clapton and many more to come.

 

A blues giant, a guitar fit for a king.
