The TM302HM is a Talman series semi-hollow body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in 2016. It is produced in China.
The TM302HM features a semi-hollow maple and mahogany body bolted to a maple neck with a 22-fret maple fingerboard with black dot position markers. Components include a Telecaster style fixed bridge with six independent saddles, dual Ibanez Custom Vintage single coil pickups mounted in a white pickguard, a bone nut and locking tuning machines.
Design elements
The headstock of the TM302HM features a straight-pull design, which allows the strings to come straight off the bone nut, eliminating the need for a string tree or a tilt-back design. The fretboard has a 12" (305mm) radius meaning it is flatter compared to traditional styled guitars from other brands which enhances the player's ability to bend notes and allows for a lower string action. The Fast Action neck joint improves access to the upper frets.
