Ibanez TQM2 Tom Quayle Signature Guitar B-Stock

The TQM2 is a contemporary shredder's instrument engineered for precision and versatility across modern genres. Its lightweight construction and meticulously crafted neck geometry make it exceptionally responsive in hand, while the direct-mounted pickup architecture delivers articulate, dynamic response. This B-Stock unit carries the same specifications as new models with only cosmetic wear, offering substantial value for players who demand professional-grade hardware and electronics.

Playability & Feel

The S-Tech roasted maple neck with oval C profile and rosewood fingerboard provide a smooth, stable playing surface with minimal wood movement. A compound radius of 228mmR-305mmR across 22 stainless steel frets accommodates both open chords and high-register bending without compromise, while the 25.5" scale length maintains traditional tension and sustain characteristics.

Tone & Electronics

The Dyna-MIX9 switching system with Alter switch unlocks nine distinct tonal configurations from a bridge humbucker (TQM-H) and dual neck/middle single-coils (TQM-S) positioned directly to the body for maximum clarity. The Gotoh T1702B two-point synchronized tremolo with titanium saddles delivers stable pitch control, while the oil-impregnated bone nut and 10.5mm string spacing ensure precise intonation and clean articulation across the full range.
