  •  SOLD  1978 Ibanez GB-10
    Designed and loved by George Benson
A graceful vintage of Ibanez GB10 is waiting for the new owner! The ideal mix of spruce top + maple body + ebony fretboard adds luxury to pearl and abalone inlay. The supplementary nut in addition to ivoroid one between the 1st fret and headstock sets it apart from the other prominent hollow body guitars. A glimpse at the string tuners, specially-designed with half bone/half brass nut, also hints masterpiece craftsmanship.

As another astonishing feature, floating pickups, co-designed by George Benson, eliminates feedback and plays warm and well rounded output. Lifting it up and down comes effortless by single screwing from the top of the pick guard. This also gets rid of the pickup rings, making the pickups stand out and the gold hardware shinier.

Detailed photos have been taken to prove her good maintenance. Smoky timber, no strap pin, and no serial number indicates this guitar was a custom-made one. You may want to take note of moderate binding wear around the rim and a cracky one on heel. If you are generous about those cosmetics, this guitar is a perfect instrument for your jazz practice. A gig-bag ships along with this beauty.
