Styled in a vintage yellow sunburst and nicknamed the Little Georgie Benson after the maestro's early days in jazz, the Ibanez LGB300 is a George Benson Signature Series hollowbody electric guitar. It's fashioned in the style of old, giving you a 4.25" body, a Florentine single-cutaway design, and F-hole sound holes.
The instrument features a spruce top with maple back and sides, as well as a three-piece maple set-in neck. This 24.7" scale neck has an ebony fingerboard with acrylic and abalone block inlays. An ebony bridge affixes strings to the body, secured by an LGB300 tailpiece. At the headstock you'll find Gotoh SG510 machineheads which provide a smooth feel, minimal back lush, and precision tuning.
For electronics, the instrument provides Super 58 humbucking pickups that offer a warm, bluesy sound with a bit of growl. These pickups are selectable via a 3-way toggle switch and can be adjusted using the dedicated volume and tone controls for each pickup. Complementing the guitar's finish, the set of Sure Grip III volume and tone control knobs have a deep honey color inspired by instruments from the late '50s and '60s, which adds to the guitar's vintage vibe.
