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.
Like Taylor’s other layered wood options, layered koa features an all-wood laminated construction, in this case with an exterior layer of beautifully figured koa veneer and an interior layer of either koa or sapele, separated by a core layer of poplar. Though the tonal properties of layered wood aren’t as complex as solid wood, the construction method enables us to conserve tonewood resources and offer attractive, durable instruments at a more inviting price. A solid spruce top and Taylor craftsmanship ensure a clear, balanced tonal response.
