Purchased from Dave's Guitar Shop in Madison, WI (great folks!). Easily 9/10 and never taken out of the house since I got it. These guitars have one the best neck profiles I've ever played. No flaws, no nicks or dings, metal parts good, and no fret wear. Everything works as it should. Comes with really good Ibanez case. Strung with 11-52 Chromes (I think) that were on it when I got it. Selling to fund a pedal steel. $2000.00 plus shipping. You won't find a better one.
Great guitar, good price, good seller and a much more protective case than the OEM ones (well at least mine). My GB10 is a 1981 and it is an amazingly versatile and useful guitar. I've used it with jazz, blues, pop gigs with equal success. I don't play country but you could probably make it work for that, too. You can dial in dark/smoky/bebop or you can get bright/poppy and you can get blues tones somewhere in between. I get sidetracked with Teles, my ES+175, my carved archtop, my Strat, etc., but whenever I pull it out and use it I wonder why I have any other electric guitars (well, we all know the answer to that question, don't we?). It won't duplicate the sounds of the others but it will cover the same ground without breaking a sweat. George and Ibanez knew what the hell they were doing.
This just arrived late this morning and I've been having a good time playing it since then. I'll fill in more of the backstory later but the main features are a 24" scale length with ultra-wide...
The guitar this bridge is on is awaiting a reset, in the meantime the existing saddle was lowered all the way then further modified by removing material from the top of the saddle straight across...

One of my college roommates had a copy of African Portraits, that was my introduction to Mr. Brand/Ibrahim's music. I can still vividly remember being enthralled the first time I heard that...
Here's Phidelity #1574 - a 16" handmade x-braced acoustic archtop from one of North America's premier luthiers, Erich Solomon. Fantastic acoustic sound, and great electric sound via the installed...
A very special NGD: a custom build that brought my ideas to life.
