Taylor GS Mini-e Figured Hawaiian Koa Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Natural

Description
The Taylor GS Mini-e Figured Hawaiian Koa acoustic-electric guitar elevates one of Taylor’s most celebrated designs with a limited-edition pairing of a torrefied Sitka spruce top and beautifully figured Hawaiian koa back and sides. Built on the famously comfortable GS Mini platform, this compact acoustic blends travel-friendly proportions with a surprisingly bold, full-range voice. The torrefied spruce top enhances projection and adds played-in sweetness, while the layered koa back and sides deliver visual impact along with focused midrange warmth. A sleek mahogany neck topped with a genuine ebony fingerboard offers smooth, inviting playability across the 23.5" scale. And with Taylor’s ES-B electronics—complete with an onboard tuner and three-band EQ—you’re ready for accurate, stage-friendly sound at a moment’s notice. Blending portability, expressive tone and upgraded aesthetics, this GS Mini-e is built to stand out wherever the music takes you.
Figured Hawaiian Koa and Torrefied Spruce: Striking Tone and Standout Looks
This limited-edition GS Mini-e is defined by its exquisite tonewood pairing. A solid torrefied Sitka spruce top serves as the tonal engine, offering a played-in warmth and sweetness enhanced by the roasting process, while maintaining the lively projection and articulation that spruce is known for. Underneath, layered Hawaiian koa—with an AA-grade figured outer veneer—adds visual drama and tonal focus, contributing a touch of midrange sparkle that complements the spruce top beautifully. Together, these tonewoods yield a full, balanced voice far larger than the Mini-e’s compact footprint suggests.
Comfortable GS Mini Neck With Smooth Ebony Fingerboard
The GS Mini-e Figured Hawaiian Koa is built for effortless play. Its neo-tropical mahogany neck features the comfortably slim GS Mini profile, making chord work and melodic lead lines equally accessible. A shorter 23.5" scale length reduces string tension for a more relaxed, forgiving feel, while the genuine African ebony fingerboard offers a sleek playing surface that holds up beautifully to years of daily use. With 20 frets, a 1-11/16" nut width and a satin finish that keeps the neck fast and unobtrusive, this guitar invites hours of inspired playing.
Stage-Ready Taylor ES-B Electronics With Built-In Tuner
Whether plugged in or played acoustically, this GS Mini-e is ready for any environment. Taylor’s ES-B pickup system—drawing on the same behind-the-saddle sensor technology found in the acclaimed Expression System 2—delivers clean, natural amplified tone with impressive clarity. The onboard preamp includes a digital chromatic tuner, volume control and three-band EQ, making it easy to tailor your sound in real time. A clear LED display provides tuning readouts and low-battery indication, and the ES-B’s long battery life keeps you powered through rehearsals, recording and travel.
Premium Taylor Appointments and Travel-Ready Hardware
This limited-edition GS Mini-e blends premium details with practical reliability. Die-cast chrome tuning machines ensure smooth, stable tuning, while the West African ebony bridge, white Micarta saddle and NuBone nut maintain consistent tonal transfer and intonation. The Copafera headstock overlay adds an understated visual accent that complements the koa’s natural figure. Complete with Taylor’s structured gig bag—featuring backpack straps for easy portability—the GS Mini-e Figured Hawaiian Koa is built to travel confidently and perform consistently, whether you’re practicing at home, writing on the road or stepping onto the stage.
A Limited-Edition GS Mini With Elevated Style and Voice
The GS Mini-e Figured Hawaiian Koa acoustic-electric guitar reimagines one of Taylor’s most iconic small-body guitars with boutique-grade aesthetics and a warm, dynamic sonic personality. Whether you’re a seasoned performer seeking a compact stage companion or a newer player looking for a beautifully crafted, easy-playing acoustic-electric, this limited-edition model offers a unique combination of visual elegance, tonal depth and everyday practicality. Inspiring, portable and visually unforgettable, it represents the GS Mini-e at its most refined.
