IBANEZ GEORGE BENSON GB 10 HOLLOW-BODY & CASE. This is a Japanese and NOT Korean blonde model built in 1982 and is in outstanding condition with the exception of slight wear on the gold plating on the tailpiece and pickups. Electronics, wood and abalone etc. are all in excellent shape. This hollow-bodied guitar was made in Japan and is not to be confused with the Korean made cheaper version.

The blonde model is harder to find than the coffee-sunburst. The guitar's small-sized body makes it easier to hold and helps combat feedback.

Comes with a strong original Benson GB 10 aluminum rectangular form-fitting flight case. I am showing photos of a similar case that holds a sunburst Benson GB 10. I don't have photos of the inside of the one that came with the blonde guitar. Only the colors of the fluffy material that lines the inside of the case differ.

$ 2,125.00. Shipped/insured in lower 48 states for $45. Others pay shipping/ insurance fees to their locations. I will take Bank Checks or Postsl Money Orders from Forum members. PayPal is preffered. I will ship internationally. Thanks, Steve
