    I just got a GS Mini Mahogany a month ago and I absolutely love it. When people say they can't put it down, they're not being hyperbolic. I agree that the Mahogany sounds the best of the various woods.

    What a great sounding room. Great decay, which you can really hear on his voice.

    Picked two up ... one for my daughter and another for my wife. Tried the Spruce, Koa and Mahogany versions and settled for the Hog due to the richer tone. It does project a full balanced sound belying its size (as evidenced by your demo) and rewarding for any player no matter where they may lie in the skill range. Bottom line ... it's fun to play!

    Believe it or not, I have a LE Taylor 412ce and a Vintage Martin D18 and I still use my Mini when I upload most of my videos to UA-cam. I love the smaller scale and yet it has a real big sound. Nice demo my friend.

      For this gs mini is better use 0.12 or 0.13 ropes?

  • @spacep0d

    The sound from this thing is outrageous. Really big from such a small guitar. Loved the mahogany top. The 'e' or electric version of this has the Taylor expression system too, which is fantastic and was formerly only in their bigger guitars, from what I've read. Cannot wait to pick one up.
    One thing to note about this guitar is that it's great for travel but it's also a great short-scale guitar with a narrow 1 11/16th nut, and .013 medium gauge Elixir Nanoweb strings seem heavy, but presumably this guitar has lower string tension due to its size. Either way, I normally play .012 strings on a full-scale, full-sized guitar and playing the Taylor GS-Mini was effortless. So, people who have smaller hands or shorter arms will like this because of its easier reach to the lower frets (compared to full-body, full-scale guitar).

    I dont understand the hype on this. I swear. I just bought this guitar and arrived yesterday. I couldbt be more disappointed. The neck and frets are too narrow. My fingers arent that big and they cant fit in a fret (eg. A) in many chords.
    I think this guitar is meant for children. Now after 1 day of using, i am now thinking kf selling it.
