The best news this week (OK maybe more so for Ibanez geeks), the Talman returns. Let's take note that it's made in Japan. So far there's no news of a non-Japanese version. For many of us that would signal affordability but hey, these are not Prestige models, they are just made in Japan. We can look forward to a reasonable price tag like the current Genesis RG. Pickups are also not Seymour Duncans like the previous Prestige version; TM J-line they call it. Tuners are non-locking units. So based on these features alone, we know that it would be in a different price range from its predecessors.
I just hope this would be a meaningful revival. The previous Talman adventure did not quite live up to the hype, the instruments got discontinued in less than three years. Not expecting much, not even hoping for many variations, just want these to be alive & kickin' in the Ibanez catalog. (Seen here: TM730)
