Ibanez Talman Prestige TM1730AHM - Tri Fade Burst

Where Tradition and Innovation Meet

The Talman 1730AHM solidbody electric guitar delivers the accuracy and precision of Ibanez's Prestige line in a design that harks back to some of the most sought-after vintage guitars of all time. A bolt-on maple neck joins an ash body for snap and clarity, with a trio of Seymour Duncan Five-Two single-coil pickups to generate the sweet high frequencies and tight low end of classic American guitars. The 1730AHM boasts Prestige appointments like flawlessly rounded fret edges and a flat 12" fretboard radius. The Talman 1730AHM electric guitar mixes Ibanez precision with classic American vibe.

• Vintage-style construction
• Seymour Duncan Five-Two pickups
• Prestige look and playability

The design of the Talman 1730AHM is a direct throwback to the popular twang machines of yesteryear. The maple neck is bolted to a solid ash body, giving you a tonal balance that is a favorite with Sweetwater guitarists. The comfortable C-shaped neck boasts a modern 12" fretboard radius for wide bending. And the 6-saddle ITL-PRO tremolo bridge offers exact intonation and effortless pitch control. This bridge design and the three Seymour Duncan Five-Two single-coil pickups give the Talman 1730AHM its spanky, full tone.

The Five-Two single-coils in the Talman 1730M are wound to deliver the low output, clarity, and snap that characterizes the sounds of country, blues, rock, and surf. A mix of Alnico 2 and Alnico V rod magnets soften the treble attack to prevent excessive high-end bite, and keep the low end crisp, clear, and tight. The middle Five-Two pickup is reverse wound to provide hum cancellation and great out-of-phase cluck.

Japanese-made Ibanez Prestige instruments are constructed with three principles in mind: precision, performance, and playability. Ibanez's high-tech manufacturing process uses old-world Japanese craftsmanship to deliver on these goals. The Talman 1730AHM joins this lineage, giving you flawless fretwork, rounded fret edges, and a comfortably shaped neck. The Prestige line of electric guitars and basses offer you Ibanez's top-of-the-line features, craftsmanship, and tonality.
