The front of the GS Mini Koa-e electroacoustic model is made from solid Hawaiian koa, while the sides and back are made from laminated koa. The neck is made of sapele, and of course there is adjustable bracing. On the fingerboard, which is made of ebony wood, you will find 20 frets, the positions are classically marked by mother-of-pearl dots. The instrument is in a natural gloss finish, with a rosette around the soundhole, and binding around the body and neck.
The frets of this guitar are made of NuBone, a synthetic imitation bone material. As a result, the instrument has significantly better sustain and intonation stability. The headstock is made of ebony wood. On the headstock you will find Die-Cast type mechanisms, which are chrome plated.
Sound pickup is handled by Taylor ES-B electronics, which take advantage of the Taylor Expression System 2 sound pickup. It features a preamp installed in the back of the guitar with Volume, Tone controls, built-in chromatic tuner and a clear LED display with low battery indication (CR2032).
The guitar comes in a gig bag.
The Taylor GS Mini is a high quality instrument that will serve any discerning musician well. Those who know what they want also know that all Taylor instruments are the right choice - it's simply about quality without compromise.
