visog Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 (edited) Like the look of the 33" Volo bass which with ramp, presumably is their take on a Fodera Matt Garrison?

Bassassin Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Black Eagle reissue! Talman basses! Oh, and that Volvo, or Vulva or whatever it's called... Jon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, and that Volvo, or Vulva or whatever it's called... Jon. [/quote] P.S. Looks like Ibanez are going right back to their heritage of borrowing ideas at the mo:[list] [*]Volo - Fodera Matt Garrison (not looks but concept - tuning, ramp, scale, etc.) [*]Black Eagle - Burns [*]Fanned fret - Dingwall [/list] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philw Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 I really like the Talman. Thing is though, while the NAMM display shows a few nice colours (although unfortunately no maple fingerboard), the Ibanez website only shows Black and Boreburst.

Annoying Twit Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 There are a lot of stunning looking basses there. Interesting that Ibanez reissues look more modern than a few very famous brand's newest instruments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvin Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 (edited) I just wish that a few more of the finishes that are on their US site were available here in the UK. The SR1400 is available in a very nice red or blues in the states Hopefully the new SR650s will be coming to the UK as well Edited January 25, 2015 by Marvin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrikmarky Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 They do make some of the most beutifull finishes for a mainstream manufacturer and I've never heard a bad word said about the quality unlike others I won't mention but like you say we seem to lose out in the uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyTravis Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Asked a mate about the talman, ibanez UK/headstock distribution haven't confirmed that they'll be bringing it in. Big pain in the arse that is, I like them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XB26354 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I like the look of the fanned fret SRs - ash body and interestingly not as much of a scale length change compared to Dingwall - 33.6" to 35.5". Sub-£800 for a 6 is a great price! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Low End Bee Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I like those Talman's a lot. I could definitely rock this one...

TRBboy Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Nice selection, it's nice to see one of the big manufacturers thinking outside the box a little bit and not just sticking to 'same as last years model in a different colour' syndrome. I appreciate that most of the ideas are borrowed, but..... I'd be keen to try those P/J SR650/750 basses! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvin Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Here's the US collection for the SR range...I need to move the States [url="http://www.ibanez.co.jp/products/u_eb_sub_series15.php?series_id=51&year=2015&cat_id=2"]http://www.ibanez.co.jp/products/u_eb_sub_series15.php?series_id=51&year=2015&cat_id=2[/url] and here's the UK :/ [url="http://www.ibanez.co.jp/products/eb_sub_series15.php?series_id=51&area_id=3&year=2015&cat_id=2"]http://www.ibanez.co.jp/products/eb_sub_series15.php?series_id=51&area_id=3&year=2015&cat_id=2[/url] I'm really hoping the SR1400E in the blue comes to the UK.
