Taylor GS Mini Koa Limited

The Taylor GS Mini Koa Limited is excellent for use on the road thanks to its compact design. Despite its small size, the acoustic guitar produces a powerful and midrange-rich sound that unfolds quickly and broadly. In addition, the short neck allows for easy fingering in all 20 frets, which intonate cleanly with the help of a finely crafted Hardware. A thickly padded bag is included and protects the instrument perfectly from shocks.

Construction and woods

The GS Mini gets its name from its rounded shape, which corresponds to the proportions of the Taylor Grand Symphony. And despite the small construction, the electro-acoustic acoustic guitar is very lightly built. The solid Sitka spruce top thus provides powerful midrange frequencies, while an arched, laminated body made of koa sapele enriches the basses with a warm note. At the same time, the flat Sapele neck with ebony fingerboard guarantees a distinctly comfortable playing feel.

Hardware and finish

Chrome-plated die-cast tuners are set into the characteristic Taylor headstock, ensuring precise tuning of the 6 steel strings. In addition, a Micarta bridge inlay and a 42.8mm wide nut made of Nubone ensure very accurate intonation across the scale. The rather simple matt lacquered instrument is rounded off by a generous pickguard made of tortoise and a three-ring soundhole rosette, which is perfectly matched to the 4 mm Dot-Inlays in the fingerboard.
