The discontinued Talman line came up in this comm recently. I happened to have one (and someone requested a share), so I thought I'd show it off.
Went to the music store with my friend who really plays guitar about a decade ago. I was angling for something on a super low budget, but he convinced me to spring the couple extra hundred for this beaut. (Still a lower-end model, I know.)
I don't understand all the intricacies of what makes it stand out, but I know it's super comfortable to hold, looks great on the wall, and sounds great (aside from my playing ability 😅). Really glad I went with it.
She’s a beaut! I’d love to get a Yvette Young Signature Talman
Woah, nice! I didn't have any idea at first what model or line I had. When I first went to look it up a few years back, I thought, until I looked real close, that mine was that one. As if I had accidentally and unknowingly bought a signature model lol.
That one seems like a much nicer version of this! Seeing that model also made me aware of her music and band, which are pretty great.
