Acoustic Electric Guitar With Torrefied Sitka Spruce Top for Warm, Vintage Character

At the core of the GS Mini-e Paisley Burst's vibrant sound is a solid torrefied Sitka spruce top, meticulously treated to unlock the tonal depth of a well-aged instrument. The torrefaction process removes excess moisture, resulting in enhanced resonance, a more lively response and an expanded dynamic range. The result is a guitar that sings with warmth and clarity, offering the broken-in feel of a seasoned acoustic from the very first strum. Whether you're fingerpicking delicate melodies or strumming with intensity, the GS Mini-e responds with rich overtones, crisp articulation and the unmistakable balance that makes Taylor guitars so beloved.

Layered Sapele Back and Sides for Stability

Pairing the torrefied Sitka spruce top with a layered sapele back and sides, this GS Mini-e maintains a strong yet lightweight build that's perfect for travel. Sapele's naturally warm midrange response complements the spruce top's clarity, producing a full-bodied sound that adapts beautifully to different playing styles. Layered wood construction not only enhances durability but also provides resistance to temperature and humidity changes, making this guitar an excellent choice for musicians on the move. Whether you're playing at home, on stage or around the campfire, the GS Mini-e Paisley Burst offers a consistently rich and balanced tone.

Compact Design With Exceptional Playability

Built for comfort and effortless playability, the GS Mini-e's compact design makes it an inviting instrument for players of all levels. The 23.5" scale length and slim Taylor neck provide a relaxed fretting experience, while the 1-11/16" nut width allows for smooth chord transitions and effortless runs up and down the fretboard. Die-cast chrome tuners ensure precise tuning stability, and the genuine West African ebony fingerboard offers a smooth, responsive touch.
