Description

Beloved for its just-right blend of bold tone, compact size and effortless playability, the award-winning GS Mini has become a favorite among players of all levels—from seasoned pros to first timers. Thanks to its travel-friendly design and rich, full sound, the GS Mini continues to be a go-to choice for players seeking a smaller acoustic. Now, this fan-favorite gets a stunning visual upgrade with beautiful layered Hawaiian koa back and sides. The outer layer boasts dramatically figured AA-grade koa, bringing a striking aesthetic to the GS Mini’s inviting form, making it as eye-catching as it is inspiring to play. A solid torrefied spruce top yields a balanced, dynamic tone profile with plenty of projection. The special roasting process for the soundboard enhances resonance while contributing played-in warmth and sweetness you’d expect to hear from older guitars. A slim Taylor neck profile and low action ensure a smooth, comfortable playing experience with relaxed fretting. Other notables include Italian acrylic fretboard dot inlays, chrome tuning machines and an ES-B pickup with a built-in digital tuner.
