Ibanez MDM1005 Mode Series 5-String Electric Bass, Pearl White

Ibanez, the innovators that they are, have once again delivered a powerful bass that bridges past and present tonality in one cohesive and intuitive instrument. With the Ibanez Mode Series 5-string electric bass, players are treated to a classic feel with modern utility, featuring a powerful EQ section that allows for precise sonic shaping on an extended-range platform designed to support any style that calls for a solid, defined low end.

The Pearl White Mode Series bass sports a gloss finish atop an alder body, accented with black hardware that pops against the white instrument. The use of alder contributes to a balanced, resonant tone, perfect for sonic shaping to suit each player's stylistic vision. Attached to the body is a satin-finished roasted maple neck with an MDM5 profile that is smooth, comfortable, and never too bulky despite its 5-string configuration. Affixed to the neck is a rosewood fingerboard showcasing medium-sized stainless-steel frets, white dot inlays, and luminescent side dot inlays to ensure each player can find their fretting positions on any stage.

Further exemplifying the quality build Ibanez consistently delivers, the hardware appointments provide the support needed to make the Ibanez Mode Series a practical and reliable musical tool. To start, an MR5S bridge provides proper intonation and contributes to the excellent resonance behind the smooth low end that emanates from the bass. At the headstock, Ibanez Aero-light machine head tuning machines promise stable tuning without the added weight that other tuning systems impart on 5-string basses. But an electric bass wouldn't be complete without its pickups, and we're excited to talk about the Delta S5J pickups in the bridge and neck positions and their accompanying control scheme. An Ibanez Sonitech S preamp is installed in the bass to provide powerful amplification, paired with an impressive 3-band EQ and Hexa mid-frequency switch to give players full control over their bass's output.

This Ibanez MDM1005 comes equipped with an Ibanez gig bag for lightweight maneuverability between practice sessions and gigs. Get the most out of your low end with an Ibanez Mode Series 5-string electric bass.
