Unique Hybrid Instrument from Ibanez

The Ibanez Talman TCY10E Acoustic-electric Guitar represents a forward-thinking, creative leap in design and tone. The TCY10E is a little bit acoustic and a little bit electric, with a double-cutaway, shallow-body design that makes it ultra-lightweight, portable, and easy to play. The Talman TCY10E features a spruce top with sapele back and sides for a rich blend of high end, balanced midrange, and touch of low end. A smooth okoume neck with purpleheart fingerboard offers wonderful feel and response. And when you’re ready to plug in, an Ibanez AEQ-2T preamp with onboard tuner delivers stellar amplified acoustic tone. Both acoustic and electric enthusiasts here at Sweetwater have found many things to love about this unique hybrid instrument, and we're sure you will, too!

Best of both worlds

The double-cutaway design of the Talman will satisfy both acoustic and electric players, offering the kind of balance that's perfect for shredders and strummers alike. Whether you play sitting or standing, the patented body design of the Talman is ideal for hours of comfortable play. Plus, the deep cutaway lets you reach those extra-high notes up the neck with ease.

Everything you need to tweak your tone

So you can dial in your tone to your liking, the Ibanez AEQ-2T preamp features a 2-band EQ designed specifically for adjusting the bass and treble frequencies. And with a built-in tuner, you can tune while onstage quickly and easily.

Advantage bridge pins

The TCY10E also comes with Ibanez Advantage bridge pins, which feature special bulb-shaped ends that make them easier to grip for removal. This special design also ensures the pins do not get pushed in too far, and they also keep your strings in place for solid tuning stability.

Great acoustic guitar with a great sound, I findmy self picking this beauty up more than any other guitar
Rated 5/5

It's a great sounding guitar that feels good everytime I play it.

I originally thought that as a multitalented Musician and singer songwriter and R&B JAZZ music Recording Artist. That the only acoustic electric guitar that would work for me was the RICK TURNER peanut styled Guitar. But needless to say...I am very surprised at the well constructed Ibanez acoustic electric guitar. It really does the trick. Yes it needed a truss rod adjustment when I first took it out of the box and observed the neck and checked the frets and string height. But other than that ? After a few minor tweeks.. it plays very well. I would like to thank the people at sweetwater for helping me with the order. And because it does have a limited lifetime warranty ? You cannot beat it for the cost. Now maybe I can get Ibanez or sweetwater to hook me up with a very cool deal I need a hard shell case for it. Hummm ? $ is out of my range at the moment. Not sure ..lol but I love this guitar.. looking forward to using it on my up and coming 2023 album release. Yeah it's all good babie....
