A rare opportunity to own an actual George Benson-owned guitar from his personal collection, with documented provenance from The Official George Benson Reverb Shop.

This is not simply a George Benson signature-model guitar.

This particular Ibanez GB10EM-AA #5B-02 was personally owned by the legendary George Benson and was originally offered for sale through The Official George Benson Reverb Shop. I am the individual who purchased this guitar directly from that original listing.

The original George Benson listing is still available on Reverb and is now marked SOLD because this is the guitar I purchased:

For a serious George Benson fan, jazz guitar enthusiast, musician or collector of historically significant music memorabilia, this is an opportunity to own an authenticated instrument with a direct connection to one of the most influential guitarists in modern music.

DOCUMENTED GEORGE BENSON PROVENANCE

The guitar includes the signed and embossed Certificate of Authenticity from The Official George Benson Reverb Shop, hand-signed by George Benson.

Also included is the hard-shell case that accompanied the guitar from George Benson's collection.

The guitar's history can therefore be documented through:

• The original George Benson Reverb listing
• The identification of the instrument as Ibanez GB10EM-AA #5B-02
• The signed and embossed Certificate of Authenticity
• The hard-shell case that accompanied the instrument
• My direct purchase of the guitar through The Official George Benson Reverb Shop

I have preserved the guitar and its accompanying documentation so that its provenance can remain with the instrument for its next owner.
