The TC740 is a Talman series solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez for 1997. It was made in Japan by FujiGen.

The Talman series is a line of retro-styled guitars reminiscent of the Fender Telecaster.

The TC740 features an alder body bolted to a maple neck with a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard with dot position markers. Components include a covered Ibanez Vintage humbucking pickup in the bridge position along with Sky lipstick-style single coils in the middle and neck positions all mounted in a white pearloid pickguard, a Gotoh synchronized tremolo bridge, a graphite nut, and Gotoh tuning machines.

The TC740 was discontinued in 1998 along with the entire Talman series of this era.
