• Great guitar

  
  As reviewed by jaime godfrey on 9/25/2012

  This guitar is perfect for my wife. She has a full sized dreadnought and she gets tired of playing quick because her small stature and small hands get fatigued quickly. The GS Mini is the perfect size for her. It sounds amazing too. It's louder than her full sized Washburn that was more expensive. Strings are great and it looks incredible. She just bought me one since I can't play her lefty. It's my favorite kick around guitar now.

• Nice Mini Acoustic

  
  As reviewed by Bryant Delforce on 1/9/2013

  Recently bought the Taylor GS Mini - Is my first acoustic guitar. Why I chose this guitar: I had never played this guitar previously, nor any Taylor for that matter. I had strummed away at a number of competing brands in guitar stores, none of which really jumped out and said 'buy me'. I did not want a full size acoustic, have always loved the Mini Maton acoustic but they are a little pricey for me at this stage in my guitar development. I kind of stumbled across this guitar in a review done on youtube by a store, went about my web research 'just to be sure', but knew this was the guitar for me at first sight / sound. The option of the Mahogony solid wood top was the final deal maker for me, unique option in small guitar market and I commend Taylor for taking the initiative to move a little outside the norm, they have done an excellent job here and produced a great little guitar. Quality: Taylor have done a great job with QA on my guitar. Surfaces have consistent finish, no dings, cracks, scratches, burs etc, guitar construction is solid. I would like to think Taylor are just as dedicated to every guitar that comes with the Bob Taylor signed sticker but I do not own them all. Play-ability: Apart from my own limitations as a guitarist, the guitar is amazing to play, string action could be a tad lower but is easy to handle given the smaller body size and shorter neck. Sound: WOW! I have listened to a few acoustic guitars around in guitar shops but this little devil is amazing. I do personally enjoy the deeper warm sound given by the Mahogany wood top and I recommend using the string brand at the gauge Taylor specify on their website for your GS Mini. Cool Features: I like that idea Taylor offer a kit to add electronics to this guitar. Whilst not for me right away, in a year or so I will not be kicking myself for not buying an electric acoustic as I have the option for a self installation electronics kit. Again, this is pretty unique and appealed to me as a differentiation. Conclusion: I like the smaller bodied acoustic, can play this guitar for hours (5+) without getting sore, cramping etc and having such an amazing sounding guitar makes it all the more pleasurable. I highly recommend you consider this guitar when looking for a new acoustic.
