Taylor Special Edition GS Mini-e Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Victorian Burst

Description

Styled with an elegant, floral-inspired soundboard design, the GS Mini-e Special Edition, Victorian Burst offers sophisticated visuals, rich tones and effortless playability. With its scaled-down, matte-finished Grand Symphony body and hand-friendly proportions, the GS Mini is a joy to play for players of all levels. This special-edition model features layered sapele back and sides paired with a torrefied Sitka spruce top, yielding a bold, clear response, surprising projection and a balanced tonal profile. Our special roasting process for the top ensures a sweet, played-in sound right out of the box. A black pickguard accentuates the ornate red and black artwork, while the top’s dark burst treatment adds a dramatic vintage flair. A slim neck profile and shorter scale length with low action translate to a relaxed feel and a comfortable playing experience. Whether you’re setting out for an epic journey or strumming around the house, the award-winning, travel-ready GS Mini is the perfect musical companion. This model comes equipped with an ES-B pickup, which includes a digital tuner, and it ships in a protective structured gig bag.

FEATURES

GS Mini: A scaled-down GS that’s anything but small.

The award-winning GS Mini was designed to be the ultimate musical companion, wherever you go — or stay. Inspired by the big, bold sound of Taylor's GS body shape, the Mini scales things down without skimping on sound, packing a ton of tone into a comfortable travel size and giving you a guitar that's full-voiced and incredibly fun to play. Think of the Mini as a modern-day parlor guitar, perfect for playing around the house but also built to fit an active lifestyle.

ES-B: This pickup/preamp combo includes a built-in digital chromatic tuner.

This version of Taylor's ES-B electronics incorporates Taylor’s 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. With an alkaline battery, battery life expectancy when using the preamp only is over 500 hours, and when using the tuner is over 50 hours. Plugging in the guitar will activate the battery. A low battery indicator on the LED display (located on the preamp circuit board) will light up when the battery reaches 4.5 volts.

Layered Sapele

Sitka Spruce
