...does it do ssb and how does it compare to a g5 or 6 which i used to have
The 2010 was a very good radio at the time, and likely still competitive today.
It was released in 1985, and production ended in 2002. If you find a used one in good overall condition, it'll likely cost you a nice chunk of cash. Is it worth it for a potentially 35 year old electronic device? For a collector, perhaps. For a 'normal' user, not so sure, given that as good, more modern, and lower priced options are available.
I have a G5, actually an E5, the same radio under the Eton brand. The Tecsun PL-660 runs circles around the G5, IMHO.
Check also the Tecsun PL-880, and keep an eye out for the new Tecsun PL-990.
Tecsun is one of the very few companies still making reasonably good portables, but not for long. They already announced that the PL-990 will be their last.
