The Ibanez miKro GSRM20B-WK Weathered Black is a 4-string electric bass guitar featuring a Mahogany body, a Maple neck, a Rosewood fingerboard, and a Weathered Black finish. Designed for use with small hands, the Ibanez miKro guitars deliver huge sounds and are equipped with many of the same features as their larger counterparts. This compact bass guitar features a string spacing of just 19mm , making it highly accommodating for children or bigger players. Dynamix pickups in the neck and bridge position deliver plenty of Ibanez crunch and drive, and are controllable via two volume knobs and one tone knob.
Overall the instrument is well-built. The only complaint is I can't set proper intonation on A-sting, because the screw limits saddle movement. Replacing the screw with a shorter one should do the job.
I searched Europe to find a ‘weathered black’ version. It was only available at the ‘Music Store’. Guitar checked over by ‘Music Store’ warehouse staff before despatch. An amazing little bass guitar: It has a slimmer neck than my E-II Eclipse! Stays in tune & extremely ergonomic. Gotoh compact bass machine tuners are direct drop in replacement, upgrading.
I didn’t expect the mikro bass to be that small and light, but it’s packed with features and great sound!
I have small hands, everytime I try a full sized bass my wrist hurts, the mikro bass saved my life!
It’s so amazing to play with and will definitely recommend to friends!
I've had this bass for several weeks now and play it every day. It's an excellent instrument for the price point and arrived well set up. Sound is great, tuning heads are solid and keep the instrument nicely in tune between sessions. No problems with fret buzz or other mechanical problems, and it's a nice looking instrument that's a pleasure to play. Highly recommended
