Lucy is an iconic Les Paul guitar which Eric Clapton bought in New York and gave it to George Harrison. When Geroge Harrison went in with a taxi from Eric Clapton's London apartment to the recording session for 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps', Harrison gave Clapton this guitar to play and so Clapton recorded it alongside the Beatles with Lucy.
