The George Benson series is a line of hollow body six-string electric guitar models manufactured for Hoshino Gakki and sold under the Ibanez brand. It is a signature series for American jazz guitarist George Benson. The initial model in the line, the GB10, was introduced in mid 1977. It was the first artist signature model produced by Ibanez.
