Get Warm Acoustic Sound In A Gorgeous Hawaiian Koa With Taylor's GS Mini-e Koa Acoustic-Electric Guitar

The GS Mini-e Koa brings the vibrant sound and organic beauty of Hawaiian koa to Taylor's ultra-popular reduced-scale acoustic guitar. The GS Mini's compact proportions make it a great choice for players who take their music on the road, and with a solid koa top, this model serves up a rich, bold sound that punches well above its weight for a smaller guitar. The built-in ES-B pickup offers clear, natural amplified tone and includes a digital tuner with an easy-to-read LED display. The GS Mini-e Koa ships with a structured gig bag.
