Late 2003 model, excellent-mint condition, very little playing time; unbelievably nice full-sized archtop jazzbox with a carved solid spruce top, ebony fingerboard, ebony tailpiece, ebony bridge, ebony volume and tone knobs (lots of ebony!) and a flawless finish. This is the only carved-top jazz guitar Ibanez produces (the GB10 and Pat Metheny models have laminated tops). Basically like a 16" Gibson L5.

The GB200 has that warm, velvet-like electric archtop sound a la Wes Montgomery, Kenny Burrell or Peter Bernstein. With the built in pickups it is darker and warmer sounding than the GB10. With a slightly thicker top than usual, feedback is not as much of a problem as it is with most carved-top instruments. See George use it in his "Absolutely Live" DVD.

RETAILS (not lists) for $2,800 and worth every penny, yours for $1000 less. Price is firm, no trades, please. Includes OHSC. Paypal only, no money orders, cashiers checks, etc.

Here's a link to the ebay auction. Here's a few pics: my picture my picture my picture my picture my picture
