Taylor GS Mini-e Koa Plus - Shaded Edgeburst
The moment you pick up the Taylor GS Mini-e Koa Plus, you understand why this compact guitar has earned its legendary status. This model elevates the experience with stunning all-koa construction, featuring a solid Hawaiian koa top paired with figured layered koa back and sides. Hawaiian koa is a coveted tonewood, revered for its ability to blend the midrange focus and warmth of mahogany with the sparkling, chimey character of high-end rosewood and maple. It starts bright, but the koa top's voice actually develops and sweetens over time, rewarding dedicated players with increasingly lush, warm overtones.
Built with Taylor's popular Grand Symphony (GS) body scaled down for comfort and portability, the GS Mini still delivers a full, room-filling sound that vastly outperforms its size. It’s the perfect instrument for the songwriter's couch, the studio, or the road—a versatility that has made it a favorite for artists like Tommy Shaw, Jack Johnson, and Lana Del Rey. For those who need to plug in, this Koa Plus model is equipped with the professional-grade Taylor Expression System 2 (ES2) electronics, utilizing an innovative behind-the-saddle pickup design to capture and amplify the guitar’s resonant tone cleanly and authentically.
