Ibanez - MDM1305 Natural Stained Amber Burst + Housse

On the MDM1305, Ibanez uses a Maple neck whose enhanced stability improves the feel under the fingers, and you'll quickly feel how this controlled rigidity promotes a clean attack with precise tactile feedback. This heated wood reacts evenly to climatic variations, enhancing the coherence of your playing during intense concerts, while retaining amazing fluidity when you explore fast shifts or extended dynamic nuances.

The neck is topped by a carefully crafted Maple fingerboard with smoothed edges that follow the curve of your hand, and this comfortable finish encourages long phrasing where the glide remains stable even during complex passages. The warmth of the treated wood provides clear articulation, and you'll notice how its responsiveness supports varied attacks and generous sustain as you vary your positioning on the neck.

On the MDM1305, the stainless steel frets extend the life of the instrument while ensuring a consistent feel that fuels your expressiveness and consolidates your comfort along the length of the neck. Their mechanical strength reduces the wear and tear you feel over time, and you'll discover how the stable metal contact facilitates clean attacks and reliable tuning when you alternate between controlled glides and harder percussive articulations.

Delta pickups are calibrated by Ibanez to deliver a bright attack, full-bodied mids and a tight low end that naturally matches the way you play in the studio or live. You'll notice how effectively this versatile configuration works with a variety of amps, and each change in dynamics will reveal a wide sound palette that supports both deep lines and more aggressive accents, depending on your musical intent.

The Sonitech S preamp features 2 distinct preset midrange bands and a particularly intuitive control that amplifies the expressive richness of your playing by facilitating rapid adjustments. This responsive architecture offers precise spectrum management, and you'll be able to feel how each variation supports nuanced textures ranging from a slightly muffled grain to a more incisive contour depending on how you modulate your attack.
