The sneaky trolls at Ibanez are adding new signature models to the 2026 list just when we thought there's no more for NAMM. The above TOD100 features subtle revisions & worth the purchase considerations for die hard fans. That cutaway chamfer & elbow rest are new.
Also new is the double hole bridge. The extra wrap over acts as a locking mechanism of sorts. This, I don't fancy (dealt with them in the AU Series). It means more string length used at the bridge & might compromise the headstock winding because some string manufacturers do not produce sufficiently long strings & I shall not name them. Loyalists would argue that those manufacturers don't make strings with such bridges in mind. Gentle reminder; the TOD100 is only available in June / July, which would subject them to further price increase as opposed to having them released now.
