Product Description
Since its inception in 2010, the travel-size GS Mini has become one of our most beloved body styles, winning numerous awards and capturing the hearts of guitarists around the world. Inspired by the popularity of our 50th Anniversary GS Mini-e Rosewood SB LTD, we’re introducing the GS Mini-e Rosewood SB to our standard lineup.
Key Features
- Taylor X-Bracing - The bracing system on this guitar increases volume, sustain and responsiveness.
- Torrefied Body Top - The spruce top has been "Torrefied", adding an extra layer of richness to your tone.
- Taylor ES-B Electronics - The onboard pickup and preamp features a built-in tuner and 3-band equalizer.
With its comfortably scaled-down Grand Symphony body shape and hand-friendly 23-½- inch string scale length, the GS Mini offers surprising power that belies its compact form. A torrefied Sitka spruce top, featuring a custom sunburst, offers a balanced and articulate tone profile with a sweet, played-in sound. Layered Indian rosewood back and sides provide a beautiful visual complement to the sunburst top while enhancing the guitar’s depth and sonic character.
A thin matte finish allows for lively resonance and ensures a smooth playing experience whether you’re strumming or fingerpicking. The GS Mini-e Rosewood SB features a suite of understated appointments, including a 3-ring rosette, 4mm dot fretboard inlays in Italian acrylic, black bridge pins and chrome tuners, along with a firestripe pickguard.
Taylor X Bracing
The “X” pattern provides a continuous flow of strength from the upper bout to the lower bout, which provides rigidity despite the soundhole’s location in the middle of the soundboard. Taylor's refined interpretations of this traditional bracing style have been adapted to produce pleasing volume, sustain and responsiveness, with signature clarity and balance across the tonal spectrum that has long been associated with Taylor guitars.
Torrefied Spruce Top
In typical Taylor style, they are yet again pushing boundaries of acoustic guitar design and have developed a signature recipe for a process called “torrefaction” to make spruce sound even richer and more sophisticated, adding a new dimension to this much-loved wood.
Taylor ES-B Acoustic Electronics
This version of Taylor's ES-B electronics incorporates the Expression System 2 piezo design elements and features a multifunctional onboard preamp with a built-in digital chromatic tuner and active tone-shaping EQ control. The preamp/tuner unit features an LED display for tuning and low battery indication, along with a Volume control and 3-band EQ. The preamp/tuner is powered by a 9v battery.
