Description
Here's the Taylor GS Mini-e Special Edition - Sakura Burst, a compact acoustic-electric made for players who want something that stands out visually and sonically. Originally a special run for the Japanese market, a small batch of these ended up stateside-so this is a rare find. Ideal for beginners looking for long-term value, or intermediate players needing a reliable grab-and-go guitar, the Sakura Burst finish is what really sets this one apart. It fades from a soft cherry blossom pink into a translucent center that shows off the grain beautifully.
You're getting a solid torrefied Sitka spruce top, which means the top's been aged to bring out a warm, seasoned tone right out of the box. The layered sapele back and sides round out the sound with good projection and clarity. It's also gig-ready with Taylor's ES-B pickup system and a built-in digital tuner-just plug in and go. Whether you're recording or playing a small stage, it delivers clear, balanced tones that won't get lost in the mix.
As with any GS Mini, comfort is a big part of the draw. The 23-1/2" scale length and slim neck make this really easy to play, even for smaller hands or newer players still building technique. The low action and smooth ebony fretboard add to the playability, while the included padded gig bag makes it easy to take with you. We've had a lot of GS Minis come through our shop, and this one's got that extra something special.
