Just received 12/22/14! Photos of the new one will be posted pronto! The Taylor GS Mini-e Koa Fall Limited Edition 2014 is the perfect travel guitar, but it's also one of the finest sounding and playing instruments on the market. A fun and compact acoustic, it's great whether you're on the go or just lazing around the house. Here with a Hawaiian Koa top and layered Koa back and sides (substantial laminate of two layers of Koa with a layer of Poplar in between for durability and conservation), it has incredible tone for such a small guitar. The use of Koa wood gives it additional high-end chime not found in other guitars. Taylor's Expression System-T preamp is also included, so you can plug in and play without sacrificing tone for volume. It has a Tropical Mahogany neck and Ebony fingerboard that fully round out its stellar materials and build quality.
The scale is 23 1/2", with an 1 11/16" Nubone nut, and a Tusq saddle. As a scaled-down Grand Symphony, it's a comfortable instrument that's great for both students and adults alike, from novices to veteran players. The Taylor GS Mini-e Koa FLTD 2014 is an excellent grab-and-go guitar with remarkable tone and includes a cool GS Mini hybrid gigbag and full setup from our luthiers.
