Big Mahogany Tone In A Go-Anywhere Size
The Taylor GS Mini Mahogany is one of those rare small-body acoustics that feels like a travel guitar but sounds like a full-size cannon. Compact 36 inch length, short 23.5 inch scale, and a solid mahogany top that throws way more warmth and volume than its size should allow.
Whether you are writing on the couch, campfire strumming, or need an easy grab-and-go acoustic that still inspires you, this GS Mini hits that sweet spot between comfort and serious tone.
Solid Mahogany Top With Warm, Punchy Voice
The solid Neo-Tropical mahogany top is the heart of this guitar. It gives you that warm, woody midrange where chords bloom and single notes feel thick and vocal.
Mahogany has a focused, direct sound that records beautifully and never gets too bright. Strum it hard and it growls with a nice, gritty push. Play lightly and it responds with a dry, intimate tone that is perfect for singer-songwriter vibes.
GS Mini Body That Feels Small, Sounds Big
The GS Mini body is a scaled-down take on Taylor’s Grand Symphony shape. You get the comfort of a smaller guitar without the boxy, toy-like tone most short-scale acoustics suffer from.
At 36 inches overall and only 3.7 lbs (3 lb 11 oz), it is ridiculously easy to live with. On the couch, in the studio, or on a cramped stage, it sits against your body just right and still moves plenty of air when you dig in.
Short Scale, Real Intonation
Real talk: a lot of short-scale acoustics do not play in tune up the neck. This one does. Taylor put in the work so the GS Mini tunes up accurately, chords stay sweet and true, and you do not get those sour notes past the fifth fret.
The 23.5 inch scale also keeps the tension slinky, even with the stock D’Addario XS coated 13 to 56 set. Bends feel buttery, open chords ring with ease, and it is a friendly neck for newer players and seasoned hands alike.
Built To Travel, Ready For Work
Layered sapele back and sides keep the guitar stable when you are moving through different climates, so you can throw it in the car or van without stressing every little humidity change. The matte finish looks clean, feels smooth, and is low maintenance.
It ships with a structured Taylor gig bag that actually protects the guitar, not just covers it. No onboard electronics here, which keeps it simple and resonant, but it mics up beautifully and takes an external pickup like a champ if you want to hit the stage.
