Ibanez GB40THII
George Benson Signature Model 40th Anniversary Edition Antique Amber Color Solid Spruce Top Flame Maple Back & Sides 3-Piece Maple Set Neck Bound Ebony Fretboard GB40THII Special Inlay Pattern 22 Medium Frets w/Artstar Fret Edge Treatment Ebony Bridge VT14 Tailpiece w/40th Anniversary Specially Designed Wood Cover GB Special Pickups Half-Bone / Half-Brass Nut Gold Hardware 24.7" Scale Length 43mm Nut Width Ibanez Hard Shell Case + Case Candy Instrument Weight: 7.2 lbs Player's Perspective Look at Ibanez's endorsed jazz artists and it's a who's who of the best improvisers on the planet: Pat Metheny, John Scofield, Ben Monder, and of course, George Benson. This 40th Anniversary is Benson's newest signature model. It brings a whole lot to the table for under $1,500. The sound is woody, clear and warm, with incredible dynamics and great sustain. You can get the tone pretty dark without sounding like every other rolled-off jazzbox on the planet: It always retains clarity up front that lets notes really cut through (maybe that's the spruce top showing off a bit!). The maple back and sides also help provide some brightness, when you need to dial that in. Throw on a touch of distortion, and you've got the perfect thick, creamy blues tone. The neck is super comfortable in every position, and the Florentine cutaway allows for smooth upper register access. Impressive build quality and great pickups top off the package. This is the perfect guitar for the jazzer or blues player who's looking for real hollow body sound on an instrument that'll hold up for decades. Item Details The Limited Edition GB40THll is a more affordable, but a no less sumptuous instrument. It features a 3-piece maple GB set-in neck, a solid spruce top, flamed maple back and sides, GB Special pickups and an ebony bridge with a 40th Anniversary special inlay as well as a GB10 tailpiece with a 40th Anniversary specially-designed wood cover. Born from a need for an excellent jazz guitar that could stand up to touring and gigging every night, the GB10 became a success almost immediately after its initial release in 1977. George Benson told Ibanez that he didn't want gimmicks, he wanted a workhorse guitar that sounded amazing. Ibanez delivered. "I'm very happy about my relationship with Ibanez. Ibanez lived up to its promise. They built an instrument that we both could be proud of. The Ibanez George Benson guitar has become…legendary." - George Benson. Overall Condition This Ibanez GB40THII is in brand new pristine mint condition with no nicks, scratches or blemishes. Photos are of the exact guitar you'll receive. Our in house guitar tech has inspected, tested, and cleaned all of our instruments on site prior to shipping. All of our instruments are guaranteed to be fully functional upon arrival.
