Nice video dude! I’ve got the Paul Stanley Mikro, I love it for songwriting, making tabs, etc. I’ve never really had much of an issue with it going out of tune easier than a full size.
Title should be how to string the guitar. I was hoping you could get into a real setup. I did mine to spec and the action was wayyy to high, although everyone says it's the same it's not. I had to put tension on truss rode to straight neck then raise the action a tad so action would play lower with no buzz.
“My 18 minute tutorial on setting up (putting new strings on) a Ibanez, then providing the priceless further information of informing you, that all you have to do now is learn now to set up!
I just got an orange mikro for $50. How did the lower tuning with heavier strings go for you? Which guage and tuning worked for you? I was going to try 11’s or maybe 12’s and go down to C# standard or so 🤔😅
@@Electric.Flamingo hm ok thanks I’ll try 11’s first. Did you ever swap out any of the hardware or pickups? I’m going to give mine a fill setup, and if Iike it maybe put in some cheapish black locking tuners and maybe a black bridge. Also perhaps put in a high output pickup set to turn it into a mini metal machine 😅
@everything-bagel never changed anything on it. Everything was great as it was. It set up fine, held tune and the pickups were already pretty high output for me so I just let it be!
Got one coming tomorrow and will use your video to set it up correctly. Been playing over 55 years and first Mini guitar I will play. My smallish hands and fingers are getting stiff with age and I am hoping this little guitar will be good just for playing here at home. Thanks!
I just picked one up yesterday for travel. Ibanez should have a limited warranty on new guitars. If the frets need work, just have it fixed under warranty work.

I want to try one of those Paul Stanley ones. They look awesome!

It handles it well. You may need to widen the nut slots if you go to 12s, but for C# standard, 11s should be perfect!

That's true, if you buy them new. I have only ever bought them used. Like I said, I mention it as a point in they buy one used and are surprised.
"clean your guitar" would be a better name for the video
Can't wipe away the mojo, man.
