    NBD - Ibanez Talman TM100

    I'm just a lowly basement player who messes around on the bass as a stress relieving hobby. My only bass has been a beginner Silvertone jazz bass that I've had for about 13 years (though I've only really been using it for the past four, otherwise it's been in storage). I've been wanting a new...

    Ibanez TMB105 Talman Bass EQ Question

    I looked at the photos and manual, there is nothing on the Ibanez TMB105 active EQ. How to turn it on or off. Does it have an active or passive select switch. I'm sure it doesn't sit burning the battery up. It would be nice to own something that doesn't need a battery, at least optional.

    NBD Talman 605 blem

    I got a Ibanez Talman 605 yesterday from one of the major mail order outfits . They stated it was a blem and I got it for about $130 off the regular price . I figured that it had a finish flaw or something minor , I've ordered seconds and blems before so I wasn't worried too much . When the bass...

    “Solid” on Caprice and Ibáñez Talman

    Facts for perspective: Music Man was recorded on a 500w rig at a Music store (Mojo’s Music in Edwardsville, IL;) the Ibáñez was recorded with a 45w keyboard amp in my den.

    Help me Decide on a Short Scale!

    I've been looking at short-scale basses lately and I've narrowed it down to either the Ibanez Mikro or the Ibanez TMB30. They're the same price and seem to have similar pickups, so I'm wondering if anyone prefers one over the other and if so, why? Are there any big differences other than the...

    Upgrades for an Ibanez Talman TMB100

    First post, long time lurker. Lot of wisdom here. I have a TMB100 (that I bought after reading about it here) and while I think it’s a great deal and really like the feel, I would like to consider upgrades. Specifically, I’m thinking pickups and bridge. For pickups, I use the P most of the...

    Need to know original pickup wiring of Talman TMB30

    I need help. This is an Ibanez Talman TMB short-scale bass that I bought new in December 2016. It sounded great. So, since it wasn't broke, I fixed it. I removed all three pickups to install new replacements, and I was very disappointed by the results (another topic for another time). So I...

    Ibanez Talman: Quality for Price

    So I'm looking to get a decent electric 4-stringer, and preferably medium to short scale. I'm more or less just choosing between the Squier Jaguar SS and Ibanez Talman TMB30. I really dig the Jag and have heard only good things about it, but the Talman is very similar (pickup configuration...

    I'm pretty blown away by the incredible value of this bass that is only $179 dollars. The fit and finish are really good but for two small things: There is a faint black stain on the back of the unfinished neck. It's not dark, and looks like I will be able to sand it off with 1,000 grit...

    Does anyone own both Talman TMB100 full scale and TMB30 short scale basses?

    I'm curious about whether or not the pickguards are the same size. I know the TMB30 has the additional hole because it doesn't have the active EQ the other talmans do, but that would not be too hard a fix. For the TMB100 it could be used for a three way switch, too. I wonder because I'd like...
