Western guitar with a striking look: the Ibanez TCY10PA-CBS Cosmic Blue Starburst.
Laminated body
In terms of sound, the guitar impresses with a balanced and accessible sound character. The laminated basswood top provides an almost attack and a clear, direct fundamental tone that is particularly even across all strings. This creates a transparent sound that is suitable for both chord playing and precise picking passages. The Sapele back and sides complement the tone with pleasant warmth and a powerful mid-range. This combination gives the overall sound depth and fullness without losing clarity.
Double Cutaway Design
The playability of this guitar is consistently designed for comfort and flexibility. The double cutaway allows effortless access to the high frets and opens up additional playing freedom, especially for solos and melodic lines in the upper registers. With a nut width of 42 mm, the fretboard offers a handy playing feel that supports fast chord changes and precise fingering. Chrome-plated die-cast tuners ensure reliable tuning stability and precise tuning so that the instrument can be played with control and confidence at all times.
Pickup with preamp
Equipped with an Ibanez Undersaddle pickup and the AEQ-2T preamp, the guitar offers a reliable solution for amplified use. The system transmits the natural acoustic sound precisely and balanced and ensures an assertive signal to the amplifier or PA. The sound can be specifically adapted to the room, style and playing style via the separate bass and treble controls. An integrated tuner complements the electronics and allows you to quickly check the tuning at any time without interrupting the flow of playing.
Cosmic Blue Starburst finish
Visually, the guitar makes a clear statement. The distinctive body shape with its characteristic lines gives the instrument an independent and modern appearance that clearly sets it apart from classic acoustic guitars. In addition, the Cosmic Blue Starburst finish effectively accentuates the surface and creates a sophisticated color gradient with depth and contrast. In combination with the unusual shape, this creates a look that attracts attention and makes the guitar a real eye-catcher.

Was looking for an acoustic that was easier to play live and in my practice chair than my dreadnought. I'm an electric player most of the time so I find it a bit cumbersome. The Talman appealed to me because of its size, looks and I can't lie that the price was great for what it is too. For my purposes, it's perfect. It's small and manageable while standing up so I can treat it a bit more like my electric but more importantly, I can play it without amplification. It's got a nice tone and flavour and in some respects sounds a little nicer than my other acoustic beast. Delivery from DV24/7 was quick and the guitar arrived well protected and ready for action. Many thanks.

I love the look, tone, weight. The neck is nice , good heads etc however I find the action a tad hard work after fret4, the truss rod is as tight as it will go so no joy there and I would rather not be messing with the saddle, all that said it is still great value for money!
