Description

Ibanez produced the TMB100MMGR as part of the Talman Bass series, positioning it as an entry-level four-string electric bass built around a poplar body with a maple neck and maple fretboard. The Talman Bass line drew on Ibanez's Talman guitar heritage to offer a distinct aesthetic within the company's broader bass catalogue.

The instrument carried a TMB4 neck profile with 20 medium frets, a 34-inch scale (864mm), and a nut width of 41mm tapering to 62mm at the twentieth fret. Neck thickness measured 21.5mm at the first fret and 24.5mm at the twelfth, with a 240mm radius fretboard. Black dot inlays marked the positions. Pickup configuration consisted of a passive Dynamix P at the neck and a passive Dynamix J at the bridge, routed through Ibanez's own Custom Electronics 2-band EQ. The B10 bridge was set to a 19mm string spacing and finished in chrome, consistent with the rest of the hardware. The instrument shipped strung with .045/.065/.085/.105 gauges tuned to standard E–A–D–G.

Owners seeking replacement parts — including B10 bridge saddles, Dynamix-series pickup covers, or nut blanks cut to 41mm — or needing neck relief, intonation, or pickup height work should consult a qualified guitar technician or luthier familiar with bass instruments.

Nothing in The Vault is for sale. These records exist so the instruments stay documented after the manufacturer moves on — and the most useful part of that record is what owners add to it.

The catalog shot showed one finish, under one light, a long time ago. Yours has been played. Photos from owners are what the next person finds when they are trying to identify a part, match a finish, or work out whether the one they just bought is really what the seller said it was.

Specs only go so far. What actually fits, what breaks first, what the factory got right and what everyone ends up changing — that lives with the people who own them, not in a datasheet. Post what you know and it stays on this page for whoever comes looking next.
