The Ibanez Mikro might be small, but it’s no toy — it’s built to the same high standards as all GIO Series guitars. The GRGM21M has the same high-output Powersound pickups, same construction, same materials, same setup, and same expert inspection. It's just downsized, with a 22.2” scale maple neck (instead of 25.5”), and smaller Poplar body, but no less explosive than its bigger brother! In other words, perfect for tour buses, songwriting, running scales while downloading and, of course, for young rockers and beginners.
