Drenched in finesse and built for the modern virtuoso, the Ibanez Tom Quayle Signature TQM2 in Charcoal Black Burst Flat is a sheer masterpiece of precision, tone, and playability. This isn’t just a guitar—it’s an extension of artistry, crafted to inspire fluidity and expression in every note.
At its core, the S-TECH WOOD Roasted Maple AZ Oval C neck is a dream to play, offering stability, smoothness, and that broken-in feel that welcomes the player’s touch like an old friend. The Rosewood fretboard, adorned with subtle yet stunning Abalone dot inlays, adds warmth and richness to the tone, while the jumbo stainless steel frets—shaped to perfection with Ibanez’s Prestige fret edge treatment—ensure effortless bends and gliding transitions across the 22 frets.
The body is a visual and tonal marvel, with a Flamed Maple top atop a resonant Alder body, striking a balance between snap and warmth. This foundation is complemented by a Gotoh T1702B bridge, offering rock-solid tuning stability with a 10.5mm string spacing, giving every note room to breathe.
Tonally, the TQM2 is a shapeshifter. Outfitted with a trio of Tom Quayle’s signature TQM pickups (two Passive/Ceramic single coils in the neck and middle, plus a beefy TQM-H humbucker in the bridge), this axe is armed with Ibanez’s dyna-MIX9 switching system and an Alter Switch, unlocking a universe of tones—from articulate cleans to searing leads, all with remarkable dynamic response.
Tuning stability is a non-issue thanks to the Gotoh Magnum Lock machine heads with H.A.P., while Luminlay side dots ensure visibility even in dimly lit performance settings. The bone nut, combined with the 25.5" scale length and a compound radius fretboard (228mmR-305mmR), ensures a perfect blend of comfort and technical prowess.
Finished off with sleek chrome hardware, D’Addario EXL110 strings, and delivered in a hardshell case, the Ibanez TQM2 is a pro-level instrument that doesn’t just meet expectations—it obliterates them. Whether you’re navigating complex jazz-fusion phrases, soaring through legato runs, or digging into lush chord voicings, this guitar doesn’t just keep up—it pushes you to new heights. At just 7 lbs 8 oz, it’s as effortless to wield as it is inspiring to play.
