Need instruction manual for B B King Lucille

Epiphone BB King Lucille guitar treble pickup in mono mode
Realize that when you plug into the one jack it disconnects the fingerboard pickup from the mix.
DO NOT USE "stereo" cables as it is intended to use TWO MONO cables, one for each side of the stereo.
IF you plug into the one jack that will connect to the bridge pickup, it will disconnect the fingerboard pickup from the mix BUT leave the fingerboard on its own jack.
That same jack will have BOTH fingerboard and bridge pickups IF the second jack (bridge) is not plugged into.
This is according to the schematic. If you find that yours works backwards, then either the schematic is wrong OR your guitar pickups may be electrically swapped.
What Epiphone model did I purchase?
Sounds like perhaps a Les Paul Special II, but more detail is needed to say for sure. There was a lot of variation in their Les Paul models. Posting a photo of both sides and the headstock is best.
-Has the guitar any binding, and what colour?
-Is the back of the guitar white or all black?
-Exactly what is on the front of the headstock, 'Epiphone', the 4-diamond logo, anything else?

Epiphone volume and tone controls
The controls should be setup in pairs (as long as the electronics haven't been modified. The two closest to the pickups are the volumes and the other two are the tone controls. The top knob set should be your neck pickup and the bottom set is for the bridge.
Schematics and wiring diagram for the typical les paul (sheraton) controls:
