Some details to follow soon (Jay will probably have more stuff for the Forum when we get more released specs.)" This will be very interesting! Jay (aka Ibanez), please let us know as soon as you get anymore info on this 30th Anniversary GB! If they will have a prototype at NAMM. I'll be sure to get some good photos and post a first-hand report, when I attend on January 17-20, 2008.   Chazmo Username: Chazmo Registered: 3-2007 Posted on Friday, December 07, 2007 - 9:42 pm:    Haven't there been several George Benson models (reissues?) over the years, John? Am I confused?   Callistabb Username: Callistabb Registered: 2-2006 Posted on Saturday, December 08, 2007 - 8:56 am:    This is great! Yet another one to hunt down :-) /Bjorn   Johns Username: Johns Registered: 2-2001 Posted on Saturday, December 08, 2007 - 10:09 am:    Chazmo: This is going to be a special model designed for the 30th Anniversary (1978-2008) of GB's involvement with Ibanez. Think on the lines of the GB12 or 2000 Masquerade models.   Guitartim Username: Guitartim Registered: 4-2001 Posted on Saturday, December 08, 2007 - 1:42 pm:    Oh my!!!!!!!!!! Must save money! Must save money! Must save money! ..............   Artfield Username: Artfield Registered: 4-2001 Posted on Saturday, December 08, 2007 - 8:58 pm:    hoping for some real innovation and orginal models for the Winter Namm 2008 its about time....don't you guys agree ? Reissues no problem but to walk the same road over and over again.....i understand its nowadays important to supply the mainstream...but doing things a little bit different thats why Ibanez got big.   Cmangeot Username: Cmangeot Registered: 4-2005 Posted on Saturday, December 08, 2007 - 9:45 pm:    Well, I am VERY excited about this one. I can only imagine what this will be like!!! I MUST HAVE ONE!!!!   Callistabb Username: Callistabb Registered: 2-2006 Posted on Sunday, December 09, 2007 - 3:13 pm:    Wonder what they will name it? GB31? I'm sure I've heard of GB's from -77.
