Great job... 👏👏 I've never seen such comparison like the way you did....but I wish I would have understood what you were saying..😅 My question is if you had to choose between this two guitars which one will be your pic..???
First of all, I'm sorry for not having subtitles. We will post subtitles on the videos later. It seems very difficult to choose one of the two guitars ^^;; Thanks for watching the video.
I am seeing this video again and again after years....one of the best comparison video. I am planning to get the Yamaha CSF-TA someday. I just wish it would have an onboard tuner. 😊
Just recently went in a local retailer and checked out both guitar brandnew in person. Taylor GS mini has a contoured back lightly curved back, a more generic neck that's comfy to play but noticably fatter feeling than the yamaha. Overall build quality wise I'd say yamaha is quite a bit better. The paintjob on the body and the neck's finish and feel makes me question whether this is a much more premium lined guitar but it only costs 750 canadian dollar here. which is 50 dollars cheaper than the taylor. Having picked up and played both I'd say the yamaha feels like a much more qualitied guitar and the apperance also has a bit more class to it. The CFS neck width and string spaces are tighter than the taylor imo and feels more like an electric in somesort of way. It comes with elixir 80/20 bronze strings so they are a bit harder feeling and more slick feeling than my default diddario phospher bronze. The yamaha's body has crazy vibration and volume for how small the body is.
Hey man, good review. Don't speak the language though. Quick question: I think the Yamaha looks a bit bigger. Is Is the rounded edge in the back of the Taylor Mini giving it more centimeters?
Sorry for the late reply. We will also put English subtitles later. Since we don't have two instruments now, it is difficult to make an accurate comparison. We are sorry for this. At the time, of the two guitars, the gs mini hips were cut a little more. These days, my video is measuring and displaying the actual size of the guitar. Thank you.
Thank you very, very much. This is almost two years later, and I was looking for a comprehensive comparison, which you did. I was caught between the two, couldn't make up my mind. But to my "ear", the Yamaha is a work of art and wood and steel. The Taylor -- everybody seems to have one. I will go to the music store, play the Yamaha and know I will buy it. Thanks again.
At first listen I liked the Taylor. ...but listen closer and it lacks clarity and is boomy on the bass strings. The yamaha is much more balanced. Cool review glad u put english subtitles on this video. I recently bought the Csf3m ....other guitars I considered was an Alvarez parlor (cedar top with macasar ebony sides and back.) But it didn't come with a case. The Takamine new yorker. And the Taylor gs mini. The only ones I played was the alvarez and the Taylor. I went with the yamaha because I couldn't find any negative comments on it. They ship with a great gig bag. The fit and finish is almost flawless. (Best 500$ guitar I ever seen) she is pretty in person. It plays effortless . The Only things I do not llike is , I wish the scale length was a little longer. I had to polish the frets. They were rough when bending strings (I have noticed this on just about every Chinese made guitar in this price range and cheaper.) Quick fix witha hone and some metal polish on a rag (u can use a polish wheel on a dremel much faster results) . I don't like yamahas generic looking sticker on the headstock. The headstock overlay is a really thin veneer I think. But I guess they had to cut costs somewhere to keep price down. The csf3m is a ton of guitar for the money. Put some fancy bridge pins in her to dress up....and a bone nut and saddle (if your picky about that) the yamaha rocks! Kindof makes me want to try their's and takamine top end pro model guitars. I bet they blow away anything under 5k from martin and gibson
Thank you for your excellent comparison. I am really torn between Yamaha and Taylor. I love GS mini Mahogany but it doesn't have an in-built pickup. I may go for Yamaha CSF-TA parlor.
Thanks a lot. I loved it too. I am a petite Indian female singer. I already use Yamaha APX 500. Now looking to upgrade. I love GS Mini too. But Yamaha parlor with trans-acoustic (2019 model) is the best for me. BTW, I didn't understand what you said in your video but really enjoyed such a holistic comparison. Keep up the good work. Best wishes. And loved your playing too.
@@pvsamorgan9803 Pvsa Morgan Oh! Are you a singer with playing the guitar? I'm very honored to see my video from a singer from other contries. If I can speak English well I can give you more information. Thank you very much for watching my video and commenting on it. I also cheer for you to sing and play the guitar.
That's my video link. Yeah I am a singer but not famous yet😁. I live in New York currently. Where do you live? No one else did a comparison video between these 2 guitars. So, when I searched, your video came up. Can't wait to get a Yamaha CSF-TA soon. 🎸🎶
Great video! However, I think comparing the Yamaha CSF1M to the GS Mini would be a better comparison as it has a solid top and laminate back and sides like the GS Mini. The Yamaha CSF3M is all solid and SHOULD sound better.
@@user-jb7mj2yh2f I would also "prefer" the sound of a Gibson, but that guitar is way above most of our budgets here in the States. It would be nice if you could answer the question.
@@morna45 My answer is half a joke. Sorry if it was unpleasant. Like the opinions of the people who commented on this video, I think the Yamaha CSF3M is better. In the case of the Taylor GS mini, it would be a good choice if you want to listen to Taylor at a low price. If you have to choose two guitars under the same conditions, I think Yamaha CSF3M with a better specification is a good choice. I hope my answer is helpful. Thank you.
Great job... 👏👏

Thank you very much. The Yamaha is a clear winner to me in terms of tone. I suspect that the solid back and sides really make a difference.
Excellent and very useful comparison! As I don't understand your language, which one do you prefer ?
Sorry for the difficult language. Subsequently, I will subtitle even in English. Thanks for watching.
For reference, my language is Korean.
I am seeing this video again and again after years....one of the best comparison video. I am planning to get the Yamaha CSF-TA someday. I just wish it would have an onboard tuner. 😊
Just buy a clip on tuner?
A comparison of nut width and string spacing would be very helpful. Great video. Thank you.

Which do you personally prefer in terms of sound and feel?
CSF3M, I have had this one. I hope this guitar will be stoped production in the next year so it will be the rare series what I have will.
I hope so^^ ;;;;
Thank you for your excellent comparison. I am really torn between Yamaha and Taylor. I love GS mini Mahogany but it doesn't have an in-built pickup. I may go for Yamaha CSF-TA parlor.
Thank you for watching my video. If you need a guitar with pickup I think Yamaha CSF-TA is good for you.^^

This is an excellent comparison. I think Yamaha has a more open sound. Great video, thank you :-)
Thank you😁
Excellent comparison.
The Yamaha takes the flag.
스트러밍 쪽으로 집중해서 많이 칠경우에는 어떤 기타를 추천하시나요??
개인적인 느낌입니다만 스트럼은 테일러쪽이 더 좋았던거 같습니다. 한음한음선명도는 야마하쪽이 좋아 핑거는 야마하가 더 좋았던거 같구요.
@@user-jb7mj2yh2f 아 그렇군요 ㅎㅎ 감사합니다~
Very nice comparison!! Pls do more video.
Thanks a lot! ^^
Great video! However, I think comparing the Yamaha CSF1M to the GS Mini would be a better comparison as it has a solid top and laminate back and sides like the GS Mini. The Yamaha CSF3M is all solid and SHOULD sound better.
I love my Yamaha.
How do you compare the volume?
Wow, amazing! Thank you. Which one do you enjoy the overall feel and sound of more... if you could only have one which one would you keep?
Thank you for watching my vedio. Actually, I love Gibson guitars, so I don't prefer both guitars.😁
@@user-jb7mj2yh2f I would also "prefer" the sound of a Gibson, but that guitar is way above most of our budgets here in the States. It would be nice if you could answer the question.

뭐랄까..야마하는 고화질 카메라라고 한다면 gs는 폴라로이드라고나 할까. 성능 vs 감성(음색)의 대결 같네요. 저는 gs에 한표
네 우열을 가리기보단 취향차로 가는게 맞는거 같습니다.^^
The SM57 didn't plug any cable. How did you record the sound of two guitars?
I don't use any mic or recording system in my video because I want to deliver natural guitar sound to people watching my videoes.
Yamaha hands down! I think that the csf1m is just enough and a lot cheaper...
I agree with you. 🙂
야마하 팔러기타는 올솔리드 아닌가요? 테일러 gs미니는 올솔리드 아닌걸로 아는데
둘다들었는데도 엄청고민되네요 지를기회는 한번뿐이고 둘중하나만사야한다면..뭘사야하나..ㅜㅜ
뭐가 좋다 나쁘다보다는 조금더 추구하는 음색으로 선택해보세요. 그리고 올솔과 탑솔의 차이점도 있습니다.
확실히 테일러가 작은 바디고 합판 기타 임에도 저음이 좋네요..
네 gs미니가 작아도 저음을 잘 살리는거 같습니다~
허태님 인트로 소스 어디서 찾았는지 알 수 있을까요?
블랙버드를 짧게 연주한거 입니다^^
아뇨 그 처음에 애니메이션같은 인트로요!
@@hansa_0218 정확히 어떤걸 말씀하시는지는 잘 모르겠으나 제 영상의 인트로 연주는 비틀즈의 블랙버드를 짧게편곡하여 인트로로 사용했습니다.
확실히 야마하가 더 또렷한 느낌이네요. 성량은 gs mini가 더클듯
성량이 텔러가 조금더 크기는합니다만 야마하도 결코 작지는 않습니다. 소리는 확실히 취향차가 나뉘는거 같습니다.^^
5분이면 끝날걸 15분 듣느라고 욕봤네.
그래도 디테일은 이 양반 따라오기 힘들죠.
둘다 가방은 너무 좋던데요 ㅎㅎ
그렇군요;; 오래돼서 가방까진 기억이 나지 않네요ㅜㅜ

ミニguitar比較レビューテイラーgs miniとヤマハcsf3m比較レビュー映像です。翻訳で文章を書いて文法にないフィット点ご了承お願いいたします。
테일러는 뒷음의 피치가 떨어지네요. 반면 야마하는 힘이 느껴집니다. 이어폰 꽂고 몇번 들어보니 야마하가 소리의 퀄리티가 고급스럽네요.
Yamaha win
Yamaha take all the way
Yamaha kill this taylor all the way... Great Job Yamaha..
I think many people agree with your opinion.😁 Thank you for watching my vedio.
Yamaha sounds better.
Yamaha가이겻네
ㅎㅎ 취향차가 갈리는거 같습니다. 개인적으로 가성비면에서는 야마하가 좋은거같습니다.
Gs mini 승!!!
취향차가 갈리는기타들같습니다.ㅎㅎ분명한던 둘다 좋은기타임은 틀림없습니다.
