The Talman bass series combines the re-emergence of a historic Ibanez body shape with powerful genre-hopping versatility and great retro looks. The Roasted Maple neck has been heat-treated to increase the wood's stability, durability, water resistance and tolerance of temperature changes. The TMB electronics offer a variety of classic tones using Nordstrand CND pickups in a classic P/J combination, a versatile setup, indispensable for the working musician. The TMB505's flexible pre-amp enables a massive modern sound that will go from slappy deep R&B to raging metal. The Ibanez Custom Electronics 2-band EQ with an EQ bypass slide switch greatly helps players explore more tonal options.

Quality and tone are great. The neck is impressive. Feels and looks very similar in quality to the neck on my Ibanez AZ24, which cost literally 4x as much as this bass. I've also been able to get a nice variety of tones out of it. Couldn't be happier with what I got. I keep forgetting how inexpensive it was too. Very happy!
