I found it's actually spelled 'Talbo'.

Anyway, here's a pic of one.

It actually sounds surprisingly warm.

Glad you mentioned that, I was having a hard time restraining myself from one of my pedantic comments! :oops:

Is that your friend's one in the pic? Is it a replacement neck? I don't remember them having inlays like that or the side trussrod adjuster.

I think it's one of the current production ones with the Gotoh side adjusting rod. They also have a run of them using Greco/Zemaitis necks (including the 3 a side Zemaitis headstock).

I found the pic on the web. But this one is pretty similar to the one my friend's got.
