★A Modern Take on a Classic: MDM1000
A 4-string model featuring an alder body with a solid color finish and a clear pickguard!!

Mode - The birth of a new "Mode," reimagining timeless tones with a modern sensibility
Iconic designs and tones that have shaped the history of the bass.
The "Mode" series reimagines that philosophy through Ibanez’s unique perspective.
What we seek here is a bass with true versatility that adapts to diverse genres and playing styles.
While honoring the essence of the sound and tone that have been loved for years, we have fused them through a meticulous design that incorporates the high playability and functionality modern players demand.
An excellent body design that feels like a natural extension of the body, and an original construction designed to utilize the entire frequency range without any loss of clarity. And a powerful, noise-free sound that adds modern clarity to traditional tones.
All these elements support the bassist’s performance in every moment—from providing a solid foundation for the ensemble to pushing the boundaries of technical expression.
Transforming a legacy of resonance into inspiration for an ever-evolving future.
Serving as that bridge, this instrument will guide your groove into uncharted territory.

~MDM Key Features~
MDM (Mode Modern) 24-fret specification
This is the most distinctive feature of the MDM model, designed as a truly versatile bass that accommodates various genres and adapts to all playing styles.

MDM-Exclusive C-Shaped Neck
This C-shaped neck, exclusive to the MDM, is compact yet features a substantial, rounded neck back and a smooth fingerboard edge for a comfortable grip.
We use roasted maple, which undergoes a heat treatment to homogenize the material while enhancing stability, water resistance, weather resistance, and durability against warping.
Stainless steel frets have been selected, as they have become an essential element in recent trends.

MDM Original Body Shape
This original shape is optimized for MDM, designed with a 24-fret configuration in mind.
It was designed with smooth access to the high fret range in mind, as well as a comfortable outer contour for both standing and seated playing, contouring that improves the fit against the body, and excellent body balance.

Super All-Access Neck Joint
To enhance playability in the high fret range and achieve stress-free fingering, the joint area has been recessed by one step, and the edges have been rounded.
The joint is designed with a wide contact area to allow the vibrations of the neck and body to be felt more as a single unit.

Delta S4J Pickup
This pickup embodies the essence of Ibanez while maintaining its iconic size and appearance.
Black-plated stainless steel pole pieces and neodymium magnets create an aggressive yet balanced tone.
Additionally, the hum-canceling structure eliminates noise, delivering a powerful sound that supports ensemble playing.

~Common Specifications for the MDM#1000 Series~
Alder body
We’ve selected alder—a popular choice for bass bodies—for its balanced tone characteristics with no harshness across the entire frequency range.

Rosewood Fretboard
We chose rosewood for the fretboard, known for its quick attack, rich sustain, and warm tone.

Transparent Pickguard
The pickguard protects the body’s finish and also serves as a playing aid depending on your technique.
The MDM1000 model features a clear pickguard that showcases the body color in its natural state.

Aero-light Machine Heads
These robust yet lightweight machine heads are made from ultra-duplex duralumin, which combines excellent strength with lightness.
These original Ibanez parts prevent so-called "headstock drop" while delivering smooth operation and high tuning accuracy.
Note: Please wind the strings all the way down to the bottom of the post before use.

MR5S Mono-rail Bridge
The MR5S (Mono-rail) bridge features a string spacing adjustment mechanism. Each string is independent, allowing the vibration of each string to be transmitted directly to the body.
Additionally, since the saddles can be moved ±1.5mm left and right, the string spacing can be adjusted as desired within the range of motion.

Luminescent side dot inlays
Features phosphorescent side dot position markers on the fingerboard.

Ibanez SonitechS Preamp 3-band EQ with HexaMid System
The "Sonitech" preamp features a 3-band EQ, volume, and pickup balancer controls designed for extensive control, as well as a master tone control that adjusts the overall character of the sound regardless of whether the EQ is on or bypassed.
Furthermore, a mini-switch on the body top allows you to select from three different peak frequency bands for the Mid control.
These three peak frequency bands are determined by the "H" or "L" DIP switches located on the control cavity panel on the back of the body; in other words, the Mid control knob allows you to choose from a total of six peak frequency bands to shape your sound.
