The Ibanez Mode MDM1305 5-string electric bass guitar expands the Mode Series concept into extended-range territory, delivering powerful low-end authority without sacrificing balance, clarity or control. Built as a modern evolution of the classic J-style platform, it pairs a resonant ash body with a roasted maple neck and fingerboard to create a fast, stable instrument that responds instantly to the player’s touch. At its core, a set of Delta S5J pickups and the powerful Sonitech S preamp provide a wide spectrum of high-fidelity tones, from deep grooves to articulate, cutting leads. With an adjustable Mono-rail MR5S bridge, precision-engineered Aero-light tuners and refined ergonomics throughout, the Mode MDM1305 is designed to meet the demands of contemporary 5-string players on stage and in the studio.
