I usually like natural wood tones or subtle colors. Something like Roadster Orange is generally a little flashy for my taste, but on a MiKro, it really does work- it looks even better with the maple fingerboard, but those are extremely rare. I agree that they should offer more colors for the...

Mine sounds great. I put in some hand-wound AlNiCo V pickups, and have LaBella tape-wounds on it. Keep in mind that the shorter scale length will have proportionally more of the fundamental. Adjusting pickup height can also go a long way towards altering the tone. There are a few sound clips...

Nice!

The new strings should be better- the ones they ship with are very low-tension. They really are fun to play- I get a kick out of seeing people pick one up for the first time!

Come on in! Congrats on the new instrument, and welcome to the club, #272!

Welcome to the forum, and welcome to the club, #268! I think the shorter scale length definitely benefits from the increased string tension. We have all sorts of incredibly knowledgeable people who are very generous in sharing their wisdom and experience, and as you have seen, we all learn and...

We can fix it- #267, come on in!

Oops- I missed that somehow- 237 it is!

Congrats on the new instrument, and welcome to the club, member #267! That was a great find for $100-

The fact that it's not easy to find them for sale used tells you something about the instrument... Adorama often has "open box" MiKros for sale at very good prices.

Nice looking bass- congrats!
