Why Every Guitar Player NEEDS a Taylor GS Mini!

Review of my trusty Taylor GS Mini so y’all can see what it sounds like and hear an account of a real owner’s experience.

[Vozzz]

Picked up a Mahogany GS Mini 3 months ago. Hard to put down! Absolutely love the tone. Kept the Elixirs and went from the stock '13's to '12's. Zero loss of tone and easier to bend.

The gs mini is such a phenomenal little guitar. It seems to have this perfect one size fits all design. It does the job for anything and is easy to take with you anywhere. It sounds a lot like a full size guitar, I probably wouldn’t even notice if I was blindfolded

Nice recap and demo. You convinced me.. This should be my first guitar. Thanks.

That looks like the rosewood model like mine. Mine has a black guard, same guitar with ES2 pickup. It sounds great mate, ignore the haters.

I went with the Martin 000CJR-10E....all these small guys are super cool.

I bought GS mini and it's a good guitar for picking, it's sound is alright for it's size but a bit tinie and thin. I have a 114ce and no comparison the 114 is better sound even though it's still a introductory taylor made in Mexico. The mini is much better for picking I find and puts out great volume. I also have a 324 ce all mahogany made in the US and that is way more balanced then both and deeper darker in tone but it is quieter that the mini and 114 but a clearer and almost less wild sound that is just balanced amazingly. But yes the mini is a great buy and I will always have it hand for it playability and great volume in its little package

I played the GS Mini Rosewood for quite awhile and still love this guitar. But recently bought a Martin DJr and had a good set up. Now I play the Martin almost exclusively because the sound is so superior to the GS Mini, at least to my ears. If you're looking for a small-bodied guitar, be sure to check out the Martin Jr series.

I have a GS mini-e in Koa. Sounds great! Nice guitars!

I might get me one of these I got the 214ce in black and sometimes it can be big to hold for non stop songwriting lol my legs sometimes hurt so it's good to have one of these mini ones

[srtspeed]

Very cool..I've been considering one of these for a while..I've got a little Baby BTe but this seems so much punchier.. Thanks for convincing me that I need one of these...LOL

I love my mini mahogany! Except case seems a bit too snug. Hard to zip it shut.

[mcdee]

So many try to compensate for the reduced volume by striking it harder... unfortunately, it causes the sound to breakup! I witness this all the time!

I bought the Taylor AD17 a few months ago as a guitar for sitting in my recliner and dinking around. It's just a little bigger than the mini. I've had a few Taylors over the years and I've found that they come with higher than usual action (strings). I always have to go through and do a complete adjustment, especially the rear saddle. But - these little guys will tear up ones' finger right out of the box.

I had a baby Taylor and hated it. Felt cheep like a toy kids guitar. This mini looks like a little better construction.

[wilwaren]

hello ! thanks for the share it looks like a real nice go to guitar, may i ask if you go on planes do you need to put it into the luggages part or can you take it with you where you sit ?

[HenriqueMerisalo]

Cant play, never tried....just bought a mahogany:) lets rock!

[jimsatterfield]

Nice guitar. You don't need a hard case (or even any case for that matter) to humidfy the guitar. Just get a soundhole humidifier and go.

[tommaxwell]

Maybe its the recording but it sounds too bright to me. I like my acoustics a bit warmer.

[lloydwalden]

I own one and find the neck is far to narrow, hope to get a good price when I come to sell it.😠👍
