Fred had quite a few and i tried maybe 10 guitars or so. None of them really sounded that good to me, and I ended up buying a non-Joni guitar, an early 74 Alembic. Seems to me Joni chose the George Benson for its small size and not for its intrinsic sound qualities. I hate to sound like a douche, but I just didn't get excited....or rather the excitement fell down when holding the prize. Of course I took into account when the strings were old, I'm quite used to that. This won't deter the fans that want to feel the Joni vibe in an instrument, but it's just a warning for those who expect a great guitar on top of the rest, in my humble opinion.
