General

Built for ambitious beginners as well as experienced bassists on a budget, the Ibanez TMB105 five-string bass features the snug comfort of an asymmetrical Talman body shape, honouring one of Ibanez's first ever models. The body has also been carved from a solid slice of poplar, keeping the weight low and, combined with the maple neck and jatoba fretboard, ensuring a balanced foundation sound. Thanks to the set of twenty-two frets and that extra low-B string, you're getting the full note range to play with, and all of it is voiced by a pair of ultra-variable Dynamic PJ passive pickups coupled with active two-band tone controls. With that loadout, the tone of this vintage-styled bass can be taken in any direction to support pretty much any genre and playing style.

Ibanez TMB105 Black 5-String Electric Bass Guitar
Wrote the following about Ibanez TMB105 Black 5-String Electric Bass Guitar
Ik zocht een betaalbare 5 string bass en vond deze Ibanez. Het merk staat er om bekend om goede kwaliteit instrumenten te maken. Wat ik leuk vind aan deze basgitaar is het feit dat het een 5 string is met een split coil in de neck en een single coil in de bridge. Veel 5 string basgitaren hebben humbuckers en die vind ik vaak te dof klinken op een bass, single coils zijn veel helderder. En als ze dan single coils hebben is het ofwel twee gewone elementen of een enkele split coil, dus de combinatie van de twee verschillende elementen is leuk. Op zich is het bridge element redelijk basic, er zit wat ruis op, maar ja, dat is normaal voor single coils en toch zeker binnen deze prijsklasse. Het neck element heeft veel minder ruis, voordeel van een split coil. Begin wat te spelen met de balance knop en de bass en treble boost en dan wordt het interessant. De hoeveelheid van verschillende tonen dat je kan maken met een draai aan de knoppen is heel interessant, ergens kan je zeker een instelling vinden die je wel goed zal vinden. Waarom dan vier sterren in plaats van vijf? Het is en blijft een betaalbare bass, klinkt natuurlijk niet zoals sommige duurdere modellen, maar dit neemt niet weg dat dit een prachtig instrument is als je een basgitaar met 5 snaren zoekt en met een beperkt budget zit. Al bij al vind ik het zeker een aanrader.
