A classic hollowbody with mini humbuckers, spec'd by a jazz legend.
The Ibanez George Benson GB10EM is designed and crafted to the exacting standards of the jazz guitar legend himself. This hollowbody has linden back and sides, producing a rich tone and bright attack. The spruce top lets notes pop acoustically. Benson specs a 3-piece nyatoh and maple neck for his signature model; the walnut fretboard adds a well-balanced character to any jazz line. It is bound and fitted with medium frets.
Dual Ibanez Magic Touch-Mini humbuckers provide a balance of classic tones with clear articulation on both the top and bottom of the sound spectrum. Expect a clean, precise response while playing fast melodies or running through the changes. A walnut bridge compliments the fretboard and transfers string vibrations directly into the body. The smooth VT14 tailpiece adds to tuning stability and gives the Benson GM10EM a timeless look.
