Gio SR miKro “Short Scale” 4str Electric Bass – Metallic Purple

Ibanez GSRM20 Gio SR Mikro Bass Guitar – Metallic Purple

Big bass tone in a compact package. The Ibanez GSRM20 Mikro is specifically designed for players who need a shorter scale without compromising on authentic bass sound. With its stunning metallic purple finish and 28.6″ scale length, this bass is perfect for beginners, younger players, traveling musicians, and anyone who finds full-scale basses uncomfortable.

Why Choose the Mikro?

The GSRM20 Mikro solves the challenge many players face: full-size basses can be difficult to manage, especially for those with smaller hands or frames. The shorter 28.6″ scale reduces string tension, making it easier to fret notes and play for extended periods. But don’t let the compact size fool you—this bass delivers serious low-end punch that rivals full-scale instruments.

Key Features:

• 28.6″ Short Scale Length – Reduced string tension for easier fretting and comfortable playability, perfect for smaller hands
• Dynamix PJ Pickups – Versatile tonal palette from warm, thumping P-bass tones to bright, growling J-bass character
• Compact Mikro Body – Lightweight design reduces fatigue during long practice sessions and performances
• Maple Neck – Ibanez’s legendary smooth, fast playing feel with excellent stability
• Purpleheart Fretboard – Dense, exotic tonewood delivers excellent sustain and unique sonic character
• Metallic Purple Finish – Eye-catching finish that stands out on stage and in the studio
• Full-Size Tone – Professional bass sound in a travel-friendly, beginner-friendly package
• Quality Ibanez Construction – Decades of bass innovation from the legendary SR series
