Today I became the proud owner of a limited edition Ibanez George Benson “Super” 10 (45th anniversary) guitar. I’m currently evaluating but so far I really like it.
Apologies for the amateur (and sideways) iPhone pics - they don’t do justice to the in-person beauty of this gorgeous instrument!
Congrats! Looks to be in mint condition and is beautiful. I am always amazed how woody the sound is from this small guitar. And the brighter sound is still very pleasant, sounds unmistakably like Benson. Truly a great innovation from Ibanez and GB. Enjoy it and share some recording if you will!
Edit: Ah I see that this seems like a new model, sorry, so I suppose the guitar is new. Enjoy and thanks for sharing!

Congratulations! I can relate. I very recently bought a JSM20th, the Scofield limited edition 20th anniversary model, at a guitar show. It's an incredible instrument. I wish I could thank the Ibanez workers in person, I really do.
You know what, im a big fan of Ibanez GB models and am owning a marvelous GB40II, but let me tell you something, they should rest it now with these models. The GB10 released in 1979 on the market and has been reshaped ever since, with great improvements and different designs. GB12, GB100, GB30, GB15, GB30 kimono, GB10 masquerade and the last big release were the beautiful two GB40 models which were brought about on the 40th anniversary of the original GB10. I think everything that could have been improved on the GB10 has already been done with all of these models. They should call it a day. I would love to see the GB20 re released.
Your GB looks amazing and will sound amazing out of the box, congrats.

I am not an atheist by choice, but because there are religions. If there weren't any religions, I wouldn't be an atheist.
Anyway.
The OP: simply because evolution hasn't caught up with humans fast...
8 months yesterday, and...I finally had a major breakthrough today....
Somehow found my set. Found breath control. No straining....my embouchure is riding a fat cushion of relaxed lip. I figured...
I tried peanut butter and jealy once, I didn't like it. The two tastes cancelled each other out and it was just mushy. Peanut Butter and Marmite's nice.
I turned my Bianchi Camaleonte 3 hybrid upside down, only to discover the frame was welded together in Cambodia. Not that it matters; my left knee needs a new hinge before I can do any serious...
Nope. If its caused by buzz it might help but its really just the physics of an archtop...or really any guitar. Its just more obvious on an archtop vs other electrics. The thing I am talking about...
Guitar Amps built into case?
