Ibanez GB10 George Benson Signature Electric Guitar in Natural
PRE-ORDER
We will ship to you as soon as we receive stock
World-renowned Jazz, Soul, and R&B musician and performer George Benson has long been gracing the world's music stages and studios, with his guitar of choice almost always being his trusty Ibanez.
Benson's earliest Ibanez signature guitar was the sublime GB100BS BS in the early 1990s, and although that particular model has since been discontinued, it's legacy lives on in the iconic Ibanez GB10, a George Benson Signature Series Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar with a Spruce Top and Maple back/sides, in a natural finish.
Semi-Hollow Body, Sleek and Thin Neck, GB Special Humbucker Pickups
The iconic Ibanez GB10 features a whole host of premium-grade appointments, including a bound Ebony fingerboard with prestige fret edge treatment and Acrylic/Abalone block inlays, GB special "floating" pickups, a half-bone/half-brass nut, a specially designed GB10 tailpiece, and even a hard case to keep it safe.
Despite the obvious connotations with Jazz, the slim neck and sublime electronics on this incredible guitar adds enough versatility for it to be suited to an array of musical styles, from Blues, to Funk, Pop, Soul, and even some rock music!
Specially Designed Pickups
The specially designed GB Special pickups actually "float" a little above the guitar's body, ensuring the elimination of that unwanted feedback which can sometimes be a problem with other semi-hollow guitars, especially at louder volumes. This also results in that superbly warm jazz sound that Benson is best known for.
Premium Fret Edge Treatment
Attention to detail is a priority for Ibanez in the construction of their instruments, whether it's with a top-end signature series guitar or a basic entry-level instrument, and that's especially noticeable on a guitar like the Ibanez GB10, with one such noticeable area being the guitar's fret edges.
Specially treated and painstakingly hand-finished to provide a tight response and smooth playing experience, this Premium Fret Edge Treatment is the perfect finishing touch for such a classy instrument.
