Boasting a transparent white top color treatment that reveals grain lines of its spruce soundboard beneath, the GS Mini-e Special Edition, Trans White presents an attention-grabbing, head-turning visual aesthetic. A vivid focal point for its eye-catching design, a vibrant firestripe pickguard creates a striking contrast against the white soundboard. Layered sapele back and sides are paired with a solid torrefied Sitka spruce top in Taylor scaled-down, matte-finished Grand Symphony body. The result is a travel-friendly guitar that offers bold projection and a rich, balanced tone profile with a sweet, played-in sound. Thanks to its slender Taylor neck, low action and compact 23-½-inch scale length, it's no wonder the award-winning GS Mini is so comfortable and fun to play. A built-in ES-B pickup, which includes a digital tuner, delivers clear, natural amplified tones for players who want to plug in. With the included gig bag, you and your GS Mini are set to hit the road for all your musical adventures.

  • Solid torrefied Sitka spruce top yeilds depth and sweetness
  • Compact body dimensions are ideal for travel and new players

FEATURES


GS Mini

GS Mini: A scaled-down GS that’s anything but small.

The award-winning GS Mini was designed to be the ultimate musical companion, wherever you go — or stay. Inspired by the big, bold sound of Taylor's GS body shape, the Mini scales things down without skimping on sound, packing a ton of tone into a comfortable travel size and giving you a guitar that's full-voiced and incredibly fun to play. Think of the Mini as a modern-day parlor guitar, perfect for playing around the house but also built to fit an active lifestyle.


ES-B

ES-B: This pickup/preamp combo includes a built-in digital chromatic tuner.

This version of Taylor's ES-B electronics incorporates Taylor’s Expression System® 2 piezo design elements and features a multifunctional onboard preamp with a built-in digital chromatic tuner and active tone-shaping EQ control. The preamp/tuner unit features an LED display for tuning and low battery indication, along with a Volume control and 3-band EQ. The preamp/tuner is powered by a 9v battery. With an alkaline battery, battery life expectancy when using the preamp only is over 500 hours, and when using the tuner is over 50 hours. Plugging in the guitar will activate the battery. A low battery indicator on the LED display (located on the preamp circuit board) will light up when the battery reaches 4.5 volts.
