The Ibanez TMB100 Talman 2018 is designed to give players a sleek vintage appearance with a modern range of tones. The classic Talman body is based on a historic Ibanez shape and has a comfortable feel for practicing and playing within live settings. The Talman 2018 features modern pickups to provide genre-hopping versatility, especially great for those exploring new melodies and styles of music. Lightweight Poplar Body The TMB100 features a poplar body which offers an increased frequency response to deliver a bright and sparkling tonal character. In addition, the TMB100 2018 has a nicely contoured body to allow long practice sessions sat down, but also looks great when performing. For added comfort, the Talman 2018 features a cutaway profile which also promotes the access to upper fingerboard shredding. Versatile Pickups & 2-Band EQ The Ibanez TMB100 features two Dynamix pickups, the Dynamix P at the neck position, and the Dynamix J at the bridge position, as well as a 2-band EQ for sculpting your tone further. The bridge pickup is a modern bar-design made for brighter sounds whilst the neck pickup is split-coil design and will deliver more vintage-inspired sounds. Players will appreciate the versatility these pickups provide, enabling them to experiment with a wide range of tones to find their signature sound. Maple Neck & Jatoba Fingerboard Constructed from maple, the Talman's neck offers great sustain and a tone that is at the brighter end of the spectrum. Its neck has a highly reflective tone and also has a uniform grain, as well as being strong, and stable and has less reaction to environmental changes. The neck is topped with a jatoba fingerboard which enhances the overall tone of the guitar with projection, offering a strong, hard character that also adds extra punch. Furthermore, the fingerboard is sprinkled with white dot inlays for a truly vintage-inspired appearance.
