Ibanez has great quality control I LIKE THIS
SATISFIED BUYER has had this only three days now and after one eaay to do truss rod tightening, I got the action nice and low, I AM VERY HAPPY WITH IT!!!
I usually sit and play solo electric guitar at gigs using a Godin 3 voice XTSA. But it is too valuable to take to open mics and got damaged once at an open mic.
I have toyed around bought and sold about 5 low cost acoustics I found around here, but they all caused thumb joint pain and hand fatique. But the access to the 12 through 18 fret was alnost impossible.
I play up the neck often, and this Ibanez Talman finally allows me to focus on the "playing" and not on muscle fatique or joint pain.
The neck, sound and features are really outstanding considering the price.
The neck is "suberb" for a $200 budget guitar.
Although it has a small and thin body, and the volume is "less" than a teaching or jumbo I LIKE IT.
It is easy to position comfortably while sitting or standing.
Even the 15th fret and above is easy to access, it plays wonderfully.
