Big Low End, Smaller Size

The Ibanez GRSM25 Mikro bass offers great low end performance, and still keeps its size and weight down. The GRSM25 Mikro bass offers a compact body, shorter scale length, and smaller neck to help alleviate those neck and back problems. You get dual J5 pickups, bringing sweet single-coil tone to your fingertips. Keep your band thumping all night long with the Ibanez GRSM25 Mikro bass.

Smaller body and neck

You'll immediately notice the lighter weight of the GRSM25's compact poplar body and short-scale maple neck. The light weight means less shoulder and neck strain over long playing periods. And the shorter scale length is perfect for beginners, players with smaller hands, or guitarists that are transitioning to bass.

Ibanez miKro GSRM25 5-string Bass Guitar Features:

  • Value-packed electric bass guitar, with a lightweight design
  • Shorter 28.6" scale length plays fast, and is perfect for players with smaller hands or beginners
  • Poplar body provides light weight with surprising sustain and depth
  • High-quality B15 bridge
  • Dual single-coil pickups with tone controls give you access to a wide range of sounds

Big sound for smaller hands

I loved my Mikro 4 string and then bought this one from Sweetwater. Our guitar player says the pickups have more "spank" on the 5. It's been my main bass since 2014. Just buy it.
Rated 5/5

My 3rd Ibanez MIKRO 5 ! - best 250.00 Ive ever spent

One is about 3 years old ( you can see my review a few posts down ....
The 2nd I bought as a backup
The third one ( most recent ) is going to have the Frets pulled out of it by a local luthier.

I had to replace different sized screws in the bridge ( as noted before in other purchases of the exact same instrument ) , and by others customers, I noticed , in this same thread .....
The factory screws would not allow the saddles to come back far enough to intonate properly ...
Just went to ACE hardware and bought the same size threads, just a shorter screw.

Otherwise, For 250.00 this thing continues to perform a sweet playing bang for the buck ... for sure.
I bought an Ibanez headless high end multiscale workshop series not long ago - THIS BASS overall OUTPERFORMS, for a fraction of the Ibanez EHB workshop series cost.
Music background: Long enough to know to just check the screws
Rated 5/5

micro 5 string

...this is a very nice bass .It looks good and it plays really easy .
Rated 5/5

Very encouraging Bass

I picked this Bass up about a year ago after deciding my 6-string Bass was too difficult to reach strings with aging joints. The size was a strong determinant. It is easy to play with little effort offering great sound for any kind of music. This Ibanex miKro GSRM25 holds tuning very well only needing attention when the weather effects it. Otherwise, it is highly dependable. My ears can pick up even slight alterations in tuning. This thing is a joy to play!
Music background: Started on brass in 1963. Started learning stringed instruments 5 years ago.
Rated 5/5

Collection complete!
