The Taylor GS Mini Blackwood LTD acoustic guitar offers an inviting, scaled-down size with all the vocal power of a full-size guitar. That mix of portability and musicality make the GS Mini a force to be reckoned with, from the couch to the campfire to the concert hall. The shorter 23-1/2”-scale length allows for easier chord formation yet still provides plenty of snap and tuning stability for a rewarding playing experience.

The GS Mini Blackwood offers a twist on the traditional Taylor design, featuring a Tasmanian blackwood back and sides with an evenly balanced and articulate Sitka spruce top. The combination of tonewoods produces an instrument that sounds as good as it looks. Includes a durable gig bag designed by Taylor for the optimal fit.

Stunning Tonewoods for Sound and Style

The Sitka spruce top blends stiffness and elasticity in just the right proportions, translating into a broad dynamic range with crisp articulation. Combined with Tasmanian blackwood, it produces a tone with a lot of volume, midrange, and focus. It's dry and clear, yet with warm, much like the sound of mahogany and koa.

Other notable characteristics of the GS Mini include an arched back, which generates more sound from a small-bodied instrument. The layered wood back and sides create a sturdy-yet-receptive platform for the vibrating string energy sent by the guitar's top. Layered woods are also less susceptible to changes in temperature and humidity, making it an excellent choice for players who travel with their instruments or require more durability.
