Complete crap.

Do not buy. There is constant buzzing and static no matter how clean you try to get the signal to be. The electronics in the bass must be of extremely low quality to sound the way it does. I am very disappointed by Adorama and Ibanez for selling unusable instruments. The lack of negative reviews must indicate the false advertising of their products

Good bass

Great bass for the money. Had to only change the intonation. The setup was good except for Intonation. Plenty of YouTube videos on this.. Playing this to save my 1965 Gibson EB-0

Big sound, Small Bass Guitar

Big sound for a small bass for home practice. Great for small hands or to practice runs or scales. Highly recommend for the value.

not properly set up

if Adorama is serious about being a music retailer, they'll stop selling instruments in assembly-required condition (unless they're specifically sold as kits)

Better than it has a right to be.

I purchased this on sale for a good price, but even at close to MSRP it's a spiffy little bass. Another reviewer mentioned it required a few adjustments out of the box and I can echo that experience. Once dialed in, it's quite nice. The range of tones available from the two pickups is better than expected, and running it through some effects just adds more character.

Love my Mikro!

Love the smooth action, refined yet bold looks, and overall tone. I like this bass and find that I pick it up more often over my others. Plan to keep it for many years to come, hopefully it'll stand the test of time. I maintain and keep my instruments properly setup at all times.

Great little Bass

Great little bass. Anybody who enjoys or needs a smaller bass will enjoy playing this. For the money it is definitely worth it. The sale price of $129 was the cheapest I?ve ever seen this model. Bass is well made and great for beginners,intermediate, or experienced players looking for something this size.

It?s all you need, smaller more manageable and sounds just as good as the full size one. Can?t beat the price.

Impressive little bass

Great little bass guitar. It's not ready to play when you receive it. I had to adjust the bridge and the truss rod, but once I did I was impressed with it's playability.

Superb Bass Guitar

An absolutely fine sound bass guitar, very able to keep up with the big boy sound. Fine craftsmanship. Guitar arrived extremely well packed and protected. Controls are all metal. It?s short scale makes it easy to play and on key. Fret spacing is superb.

An excellent value and fun to boot

My first musical instrument. I purchased this bass as I wanted limited investment not knowing whether I would like playing. I also wanted something of decent quality. This bass has surprised me and has made learning enjoyable.

High quality, easy to play Ibanez miKro Series GSRM20.

I'm recently retired and a beginner with the base. The Ibanez miKro Series GSRM20 was just what I needed to get started. The short scale is better for stiff fingers, and I found it quite easy to play. The quality is very good for this lower priced guitar, and it came mostly set up, needing only a few tweeks. I recommend this product to others, especially older folks with arthritis.

The guitar was the perfect size for my 15 year old daughter. The guitar in her words is “Sweet” and the color is beautiful. It is beautifully made and easy to handle.
