The Ibanez Talman TMB100: Modern Versatility

The lightweight and comfortably offset poplar body of the Talman lays down a warm and punchy foundation and plenty of resonant sustain, while the maple neck has been combined with a twenty-two fret jatoba fretboard to add a touch of extra warmth to the natural tone. A J-style Dynamix split-coil pickup has been planted at the bridge while a P-style Dynamix single-coil sits at the neck, giving the sound of this bass some sweet, vintage-flavoured punch and all of it is dialled in via active two-band tone controls to shape everything from a pumping rock sound to a round R&B sound.

Retro Cool

While other affordable bass guitars are often cheaper versions of classics, the TMB100 does its own thing. The Talman body shape is an original Ibanez design and lends itself perfectly to a four-string bass, bringing unique retro style alongside versatile sound and superb, Ibanez-grade playing comfort.
