    That looks like a fantastic machine! Loving that pickguard, and the all black strings/hardware looks really clean and snazzy. What are those strings?

    Wow dude this looks absolutely fantastic, sweet! In other news, I realised I'm not an official member of the club yet! Here's a pic of me playing a battle of the bands last night, can I be a member now?

    The Official Ibanez TMB Talman Bass Club

    Just got my TMB100 back from the shop, it's had a new set of Rotosounds 66s put on it and a fresh setup. Plays absolutely fantastic, this was my first bass and it'll last me a long time until I can afford to upgrade. I've also put on this new white pickguard that I purchased from user Emubass...

    That looks amazing man! Did you have to do any drilling or woodwork to fit those tuners? I'd potentially be interested in changing the tuners on my TMB100 but I'd rather not have to mess around with any of that.

    So after experimenting with vinyl wrapping my pickguard(which you can see earlier in this thread) I've decided I'd like to look into getting a replacement pickguard instead. The vinyl wrap was cool but hard to get right and I feel like with use it'd wear down and you'd be able to see the...

    It was extremely cheap. I bought some cheap matte black vinyl wrap off Amazon(but you can find a multitude of colours and finishes) and it cost me about £10. Tools wise you just need scissors and a blade(I used a swiss army knife I already have, for best results you want to use some kind of...

    I posted this image elsewhere and someone else mentioned this to me, it has been duly fixed!

    So after much deliberation over wanting to replace that disastrous tortoise pickguard, I decided on vinyl wrapping mine as it's cheap, easily reversible and gives me a wide range of colour options. My wrap wasn't perfect but it does the job nicely!

    Wow, that's an amazing looking bass dude! That pickguard looks real nice with the ivory finish.

    Thanks for your advice. I can learn to dig the tort but it's really nagging me and I wanna go for an all black look. As I said before, I might just see if I can get Ibanez to send me a stock one and paint it, or maybe paint my current one. I could even remove it entirely and see how that looks...

    First time TBer here, and newbie bass player dropping in with my 100! Been playing about 5 months now, this was my first bass of course and I really like it! Only thing is I hate that damn tortoiseshell pickguard, I would order a replacement one from somewhere but I'm in the UK so shipping from...
