Equipped with two humbucking pickups and a 22" scale length, it offers a compact, lightweight design ideal for beginners, travelers, or pros needing a portable practice guitar without compromising tone or build quality. ## Description The Ibanez Mikro 3/4 scale electric guitar is perfect for last minute rehearsals, running scales while waiting for downloads, young rockers just joining the fray or anyone who just wants a smaller neck and body. Not to be confused with other small guitars, the Ibanez Mikro is no toy. Mikro features the same construction, high quality and careful set-up of the Ibanez full size GRX and GRG models. Mikro's 22" inch scale length (standard guitars feature a neck scale from 24 3.4" to 25 1/2") makes it the right choice for beginner players or pros practicing on the tour bus. Review: My lifetime favorite guitar, so far! - Best guitar for it's price range. I fell in love with this guitar. Everything feels premium quality. The built is just top notch! Even the strings that it comes with sound great. The action is perfection, the finish has had no issues after years, & the size makes it so fun to play. It also holds a tune for a long time! Thanks Ibanez for keeping great guitars affordable. I wish you'd make every kind of instrument! Review: This thing is great - I've played the same Fender USA strat since 2011, and I've played it a lot. It's the first thing I would grab if my house was on fire. With that said, I didn't really want anything to replace it, but I wanted something smaller and easier to play in the bedroom and other places that make a smaller form a little more bearable (makes it so much easier to get into those port-o-potties). Anyway, it IS much easier to play in more cramped spaces, BUT, holy crap is this thing fun to play. And it plays GREAT. The feel of it is awesome. The only downsides I have, which aren't enough to care about for me for this guitar, are the neck width (a little small for my hands, but I have big hands), and maybe the dead, bland feel of the wood in this guitar. It's still worth the money, but there's a way that good wood sounds when a guitar vibrates, and this once definitely has zero of that. But that isn't going to affect playability or how it sounds to a degree. And for the money, it's just fine. In fact that's maybe not even fair to gripe about at all with a guitar this cheap. ALL new guitars need a proper setup. It also takes a few hours of playing to get it broken in a little bit. I highly suggest buffing out/polishing the frets (this took the most time, but it made the most difference for me), NEW STRINGS, adjust pickups, adjust truss rod. Besides the fret buffing, bridge pickup being too low, and a little neck relief added, mine was actually in great shape. I also adjusted the bridge saddles a bit to match the radius of the fret board. I am only saying all of the setup stuff because I am seeing a lot of negative comments about this guitar being junk because it plays like crap. It WILL play like crap out of the box. You have to do more than tune it... It's a music instrument. It desperately needs intonation and new strings. Ibanez did this at the factory but that was in China, and it happened many months before it showed up in your hands. It's easy to do, and it will get this guitar up to its potential. I can't believe the build quality of this thing for 150 bucks. I highly recommend it! ## Features - 6-string Solidbody Electric Guitar with Poplar Body - 2 Humbucking Pickups - Black - Rosewood Fingerboard - Maple Neck ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00GXNRAG0 | | Back Material Type | Shorter scale length ideal for players with smaller hands or preference for smaller necks | | Best Sellers Rank | #15,048 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #47 in Solid Body Electric Guitars | | Body Material | Poplar | | Body Material Type | Poplar | | Brand | Ibanez | | Brand Name | Ibanez | | Color | Black | | Connector Type | 1/4 inch (6.35mm) audio jack | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 396 Reviews | | Fretboard Material Type | Rosewood | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00606559341702 | | Guitar Bridge System | F106 Bridge with Individual Saddles | | Guitar Pickup Configuration | H | | Hand Orientation | Right | | Included Components | Not Included | | Instrument | Guitar | | Instrument Size | 3/4 (Right-Handed) | | Item Dimensions | 37 x 3 x 14 inches | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 37.24"L x 15"W x 3.27"H | | Item Type Name | Solid-Body Electric Guitar | | Item Weight | 7.5 pounds | | Manufacturer | Ibanez | | Manufacturer Part Number | GTSGRGM21BKN | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Model Name | GRGM21BKN | | Model Number | GRGM21BKN | | Neck Material Type | Maple | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Strings | 6 | | Scale Length | 22 | | String Material Type | Nickel | | Top Material Type | Poplar Wood | | UPC | 606559341702 606559530908 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 1 year limited warranty. | ## Product Details - **Back Material Type:** Maple Wood - **Body Material:** Poplar - **Brand:** Ibanez - **Color:** Black - **Fretboard Material Type:** Rosewood - **Guitar Pickup Configuration:** H - **Hand Orientation:** Right - **Neck Material Type:** Maple - **String Material Type:** Nickel - **Top Material Type:** Poplar Wood ## Images ![Ibanez RG MiKro GRGM21 - Black | 24-fret maple neck with dual humbuckers and poplar body for practice, travel and performance - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71rsVXr324L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: It says left handed available, is it? How do I choose it and is it the same price??** A: 😐 **Q: Is it 39"** A: Measuring my guitar, it is 35 5/8" from the tip of the headstock to the strap button on the bottom. With a 22 1/4" scale length. I love mine. Hope this answers your question. **Q: I have a question regarding the size of the guitar is 1/4, 2/4, 3/4 or 4/4?** A: While there isn't really a strict definition of what constitutes 1/4, 2/4, 3/4 or 4/4 guitars, the Mikro is most considered a 3/4 guitar. **Q: will a 1/4 " output jack" work on this guitar?** A: This guitar has a 1/4" output jack, so you would need a 1/4" instrument or guitar cable to connect this guitar to an amp. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My lifetime favorite guitar, so far! *by J***K on January 13, 2026* Best guitar for it's price range.

My use case is to have an inexpensive decent playing 3/4 size guitar to practice during the day. It's a great chair or couch guitar, even chairs that have arms. No need to pull out a valuable guitar. I can walk around the house and not bang the headstock or body into doorways and so on. For the price point I can't image something better. Like other reviewers, I found tuning stability to be the only significant issue out of the box. Users can try this: Please see the first pic. Once tuned to pitch, tighten to snug the Phillips head screws. This makes the tuners harder to turn. To restring or do maint. loosen the screws and use string winder or whatever. The idea being to not wear out the bushings by keeping them tight and using a string winder for changing strings. Keep them snug tight for minor tuning adjustments then loosen them when doing extreme tension changes. I also used lubricant on the string trees and nut. Red arrows point these places out in the two pics. I included a 3rd pic of the guitar with two of it's full sized brothers also made by Ibanez for size comparison. Out if the box I didn't do much but I did it in this order, not much different from any other new guitar. - Tightened tuning pegs, the only unique thing needed compared to other new guitars. - Lubricated string trees and nut (D'Addario friction remover is an option) - Tweaked the neck relief, not very functional truss rod, but very little really needed. It came good enough for my use case. - Oiled the fingerboad which was quite dry. (F-One Oil is an option) - Polished the frets which were a bit rough. (MusiNomad has a nice kit as an option) - Raised the string height on a couple strings because I couldn't increase the neck relief. - Checked intonation which was good enough out of the box for my use case. I have long respected Ibanez guitars and even more so now. At this price I am very impressed indeed! ## Frequently Bought Together - Ibanez RG MiKro GRGM21 - Black - New bee Guitar Cable 10ft Electric Instrument Bass AMP Cord for Electric Mandolin, Pro Audio (Right Angle to Straight, Black) - Fender Frontman 10G Guitar Amp, 10 Watts, with 2-Year Warranty, 6 Inch Fender Special Design Speaker, 5.75Dx10.25Wx11H Inches --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/4356985-ibanez-rg-mikro-grgm21-black-24-fret-maple-neck-dual](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/4356985-ibanez-rg-mikro-grgm21-black-24-fret-maple-neck-dual) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-08-15*
