Hi my names Jake and im a Series 10 and Bently guitars collector. Series 10 guitars are not made anymore and neither Jackson or Fender bought the name. Bently guitars originated back in 1985 when the company SLM introduced them. SLM stands for Saint Louis Music. They made the guitar brand because people wanted somthing that cost less then Alvarez guitars.(Alvarez is not an offbrand of Ibanez regaurdless of what some people say). Bently was a medium grade guitar and started off as acoustics. Then they started making electrics. Then they changed the names of the electrics to Series 10 as a way to separate the acoustics from the electrics. Series 10 and Bently guitars were made from 1985 to 1998. SLM stoped making the guitar line when they introduced the Austin guitar line. On the used market you can find them from $50 to $100 maybe a little more depending on the guitar and if you find a collector. If you want to send me the serial number and a picture of the guitar i can try to find out how much it sold for and how much it is worth now if you like. I hope this information helped you out some. I just made this account on here because i saw your question on google lol I have been collecting the guitars for 3 years and own a few of the les paul copys. i'll ttyl -Jake- Jake, I have a Series 10 Dolphin in Near Mint condition. Current SLM contacts could find nothing about this guitar. I know they were made in 1994 and had very limited production. It is a copy of the EVH Ernie Ball MM Axis. Awesome guitar.
