Taylor GS Mini Sapele Acoustic Guitar

Compact-sized acoustic with solid Sitka spruce top, and sapele back and sides.

There’s something undeniably inviting about the Taylor GS Mini’s scaled-down size, yet a single strum reveals the impressive voice of a full-size guitar. That mix of portability and musicality has proven to be a winning combination that fits into many scenarios in life, from the couch to the campfire to the concert hall. It’s not too big, it’s not too precious and it’s not too expensive. That broad-based accessibility has given it a resounding universal appeal, not to mention a built-in fun factor. The shorter 23.5″ scale length makes forming chords a breeze yet gives the instrument plenty of snap and tuning stability for a rewarding playing experience. Layered sapele back and sides add rich, organic aesthetics.

All GS Mini models include a durable structured gig bag that’s perfect for players on the go.

Tonewoods

Sitka spruce is one of the most prevalent guitar top wood of the modern era. It blends stiffness and elasticity in just the right proportions which translates into broad dynamic range with crisp articulation. Layered back and sides create a sturdy yet receptive platform for the vibrating string energy sent by the guitar’s top. Layered wood is less susceptible to changes in temperature and humidity, making it an excellent choice for players who travel with their instruments or simply require more durability.
