Thanks for posting this. I am really looking forward to playing one of these. I like that it comes with the ES2 system and a better bag. The edge burst is so beautiful.
This is where the industry is heading and Taylor is leading the pack. Big sound in a small, comfortable, easy to play package. Thank you Taylor!!!
Man it looks so good.
I think that Taylor makes incredible guitars…but the GS Mini models are among the finest instruments out there for both gigging and playing at home.
Definitely getting this guitar
Love this guitar
Just bought one. Selling my walnut version. Great sound by far the best even better than some of my gibson acoustics.
I played one at Guitar center. I was shocked by the tone and projection. It's hard to believe it's coming from that little guitar.
I was at the local Guitar Center to buy myself a Taylor AD22e American Dream, then this little guitar that I’ve seen before, got my attention.Yes, I haven't been to Guitar Center for a while! So I wanted to grab it and give it a try. My jaw dropped how much impressive loud sound, clarity, sustain, deep bass this little beast can produce!
Since the size difference between the 2 is not much. I consider Taylor AD22e American Dream a travel guitar too.
Here is the thing that I’m surprised about the GS Mini Koa Plus.Yes, I had my gauge with me to measure it! The action seemed to me a bit high, but still very playable! Still though, I just don’t understand why the “high e” on the GS Mini Koa Plus is way higher than any other Taylor guitars’.
The string height (action) at the 12th fret, here are some comparisons. The string height is from the top of the 12th fret to the bottom of the string.
Taylor GS Mini Plus
Low E: 2.75mm
High e: 2.25mm
Taylor AD22e American Dream
Low E: 2.5mm
High e: 1.75mm
Taylor 214CE
Low E: 2.75mm
High e: 1.75mm
i will buy one day but im outta money right now :D
I still prefer the original koa look, but I too, like the ES2 and case! How much difference does the ES2 make compared to the EST that’s in the reg koa version?
The ES-b is the same system, but does not offer the same level of EQ customization that the ES-2 does.
So when plugged in, the ES-b does fine, but the ES-2 is still better.
The koa models in particular seem to match the ES sensors really well.
Where to buy
"Under $1000 in the US" my @$$ - it's $999
Well 999 is definitely not over 1000$🙀
James Yarberry it is with 8% tax in NY
$999 is under $1000... tf are you talking about.
Ordered mine last weekend 👍🏾 expecting delivery in May 😒
Hope you enjoy it!
Mines expected delivery is feb 2 2021 so long.. can’t wait 🤘🏻
I want an all solid gs mini. like an high class small taylor :D
Layered helps with durability and climate control though so I don’t mind
You know the pricing is a little sketch when they have to show the case.
All of taylor's pricing is a little sketch. They're selling layered back and sides all the way up into the $1500's. Martin is the same.
🙏
Still waiting on that link!
The link is there! We've got our first one winging it's way to us right now
@@reidys I bought one a couple weeks ago, just got it. Wow it's gorgeous, plays so perfectly, sounds amazing, very balanced. Super light-weight and the pickups are insanely good.
This thing sounds like a full sized guitar.
Has anyone been able to play this and the Gibson small body G and L series in that $1000 - $1600 range to compare?
I like my strings low since I play live 5 nights a week. How's the action?
you can set it up any way u want...
NEED THAT LINK!!!
LINK ADDED! We've got our first one winging it's way to us right now
Try a tanglewood koa you will be very surprised 😮
What is he playing it through?
Nothing! He's not playing it through anything! It's not plugged in (amplified).
They need to come out with an old school hardshell case for the gs mini. The ones that look like leather with the brass latches and red crush velvet interior. The hardshell cases they have for the gs mini are clunky and ugly.
@Fintan look at the "SKB GS Mini Acoustic Hard Case"
www.thomann.de/de/skb_gs_mini_acoustic_hard_case.htm?sid=795ccb14f0712f0989d0bb1b33ff72b3
I agree! I want an official Taylor GS Mini hardshell case. Don't really like the Aerocase.
Blown away by the sound in the guitar shop … more expensive guitars just can’t compare..
Nope. Im still waiting for gs mini with cutaway
Then it would no longer be a GS shape...
Never gonna happen.
1000 bucks for a small guitar with laminate back and sides.
? It’s not laminate. It’s layered back and sides.
@@mojav3_ layered and laminate are the exact same thing. He's right it's laminate.
Chris Terry incorrect. Many guitars are identified as being solid wood, and laminate back and sides. They’re often cheap and affordable guitars, as laminate guitars are made with almost entirely synthetic materials. Taylor guitars with “layered” backs and sides feature far more real wood than “laminate” back and side guitars on the market.
@@mojav3_ yes, there are different kinds of laminated wood. But if it's not solid back and sides, it's some kind of laminated wood, i.e. thin sheets of different wood glued or pressed with grain perpendicular to one another. Doesn't mean they're crap....Gibson 335, 345 and 355 all laminates with nice piece of typically curly maple on top.. But laminated vs layered is distinction without difference.
@@ChrisLisaLiam As long as it plays and sounds great it doesn't matter.
