Ibanez GSRM20B GIO miKro Bass, Walnut Flat - Secondhand

Full Description

Smaller design, same big sound

You want to be the best. But you feel at a disadvantage with standard basses because you're smaller. Ibanez understand this. So they came up with the miKro series of bass guitars - the smaller counterparts of the Ibanez GIO series. As part of this series, the GSRM20B GIO has a smaller design that is aimed towards players with smaller hands. A short scale neck, medium frets, and a GSRM neck profile all lend themselves to your smaller physique giving you more comfort. But it still holds its own. Keeping the same looks and tone, you have all the quality of a standard-sized bass so there's no excuse. Become the bassist you were born to be.

Maple magic and poplar perfection

There's nothing better than a maple neck. It's smooth yet robust. Has a bright yet expressive tone. And this one is topped with a treated New Zealand pine fingerboard. So, you can expect high levels of projection with a crisp, clear tone and sustain that will have your beats sinking into the heart of your crowd. Then there's the body. Made from poplar, it balances the snappy twang of the maple neck giving you a meaty tone that sounds great at the low end. It's everything you need for your sound. It's perfect for your performance.

Be versatile and expressive

Plug in and play loud. You don't have to worry about your tone getting lost in the electronics because this bass comes with two powerful Dynamix bass pickups in a classic "P/J" configuration. This tried-and-tested combination of a punchy "P"-style split coil neck pickup and mellow "J"-style single coil bridge pickup, lets you reach all genres from warm jazz sounds to thunderous rock tones. And you can tweak them your way. They're wired to individual volume controls and share a master tone control, letting you dial in the perfect sound for your playing style.
