Fair enough... but just have a listen to the J-tones on offer:
-
Worth having a go on one if they get one in?
-
I think Gregor has mentioned that he sold basses for a living so I think he knows his stuff. And, to be fair, they probably avoid reviewing something they don't like at all. I have seen them be critical of fit and features - recently getting a spec changed on a bass which they then re-reviewed.
-
I thought exactly the same but not quite as extreme in the offset. So maybe that rare instance of successful plastic surgery?
-
The BtW guys rave about the four and the five. Six review coming shortly. 'Best bass Ibanez has ever made' is quite the statement given they've probably made more models (and maybe actual basses) then anyone else!
-
No. I looked too. Seems like they've focused on the Mode series:
-
Crikey! You'll have Health & Safety on to you with those things. (They're in the Thomann's vid posted above too.)
-
I know I've posted most of the Internet in this thread now but here's a good one on the details and design philosophy of the the Mode - they're light! As well as other new basses from Ibanez. That white finish is gorgeous!
-
£1,145 on Thomann in case anyone is wondering... https://www.thomann.co.uk/ibanez_mdm1006_pw.htm

Sixer looks good in white!
-
I know and it looks great. Some J-sixers look kind of bloated. The ramp Nat is using in the vid is part of the deal too including with the sixer.
-
Looks interesting... not seen this shape before. Great sounds too - just get past the metal at the start...
-
Website is terrible and it doesn't look auspicious for bass given the GUITAR! (and bass) show promotion.
-
Good heavens! That's a rare bird. Beautiful. -
Awful miming. Great song though. Think the bass is Chris' though although I have a recollection that it was stolen.
-
That wasn't very Christmassy at all. Just crashing the thread I assume. Back on topic, I've been listening to Chris Squire's 'Swiss Choir' through December. Lovely arrangements of classic carols sung by a good choir of youngsters... with dirty great clanking Rickenbacker throughout and Chris' great voice too.
-
Liking the Entropia sounds...
-
I'd imagine Mr Harris would have had to have signed it off. What was he thinking?
-
A lovely prog-tastic Christmas song. Shame it wasn't a hit. It does sound like 'FOoW' - probably because of the strings by the same arranger (Andrew Pryce Jackman), the joyous absence of guitar, outrageous up-mixing of his bass and of course Chris' great voice.
-
And what an awful flappy tone it was... A mystery as Wal's can sound absolutely great, and Geddy can sound great, c.f. Moving Pictures bass tones on Rick and Fender but Ged + Wal + 80s production = flap!
-
Looks like Ibanez are responding to the Sire/Cort competition in this ergo/headless form factor space with a cheaper EHB line: https://www.ibanez.com/usa/products/detail/ehb605_1p_01.html Thinks it's mostly the electronics where they've taken cost out.

Sky Arts ,Worlds greatest Basslines .28/11/25
visog replied to martin8708's topic in General Discussion
I admire you faith in the producer's intent in finding the objectively-best players. I'm confident none of these players will be mentioned. The criteria will almost certainly be 'World's Greatest Basslines (your Mum would recognise)' -
Oh wow! Nate Navarro putting it through its paces... What an interesting bass. Sounds great.
-
🤯OMG! That's up there with an Ibby Thundercat. Is this the most expensive Ibanez bass?
