The TM302PM is a Talman series solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in mid 2016. It was produced in China.

The TM302PM features an alder 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 single coil pickups mounted in a pearloid pickguard, a bone nut and locking tuners.

Design elements[]

The headstock of the TM302PM 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 compared to a standard square heel joint.

Related models[]

The TM302M (white pickguard) and TM302BM (black pickguard) are identical except for the color of the pickguard, knobs and finish. The TM302 is another similar model with a rosewood fretboard. The TM303M adds a third pickup.

The TM302PM was available from August 2016.[1] It was discontinued along with the entire Talman solid body guitar line after 2018.
