Taylor GS Mini Special Edition Honeyburst! Guitar comes with Taylor Structured GigBag!
Big Taylor tone in a remarkably comfortable package—and the Honeyburst finish makes this Special Edition GS Mini stand out immediately.
The Taylor GS Mini-e Special Edition Honeyburst combines the portability and easy-playing feel that made the GS Mini a modern classic with a solid torrefied spruce top, layered sapele back and sides, short 23-1/2" scale and Taylor ES-B electronics. It's compact enough to take almost anywhere, yet delivers the balanced, surprisingly full voice that has made the GS Mini a favorite among beginners, seasoned players and traveling musicians alike.
At Northeast Music Center, we think this Special Edition hits a particularly sweet spot: it's easy to play, great looking, ready to plug in and serious enough that you won't outgrow it.

SMALL BODY. SURPRISINGLY BIG VOICE.
The GS Mini has earned its reputation by doing something remarkably well: delivering a satisfying acoustic-guitar experience from a body that's comfortable enough to take virtually anywhere.
Inspired by Taylor's Grand Symphony design, the GS Mini scales down the dimensions without making the instrument feel or sound like a toy. Its compact body produces a clear, punchy and surprisingly full voice that works equally well for strumming, fingerstyle, songwriting or simply keeping a great guitar close at hand around the house.
SOLID TORREFIED SPRUCE TOP
A major part of this Special Edition's appeal is its solid torrefied spruce soundboard.
Taylor's torrefaction process gives the spruce additional warmth and sweetness while retaining the clarity, balance and projection players expect from a quality spruce-top acoustic.
Paired with layered sapele back and sides, the GS Mini-e delivers a versatile voice with excellent definition and enough warmth to make it equally enjoyable for chords, melodic playing and fingerstyle work.
SHORT SCALE — EASY, RELAXED PLAYABILITY
With its 23-1/2" scale length, 1-11/16" nut width and Taylor Standard Carve neck profile, the GS Mini has an inviting feel that works for an enormous range of players.
The shorter scale contributes to a relaxed playing experience, while the compact body sits comfortably whether you're playing on the couch, writing songs, traveling or performing.
That's one reason we recommend the GS Mini to such a broad range of musicians at Northeast Music Center. It can make an excellent first quality acoustic guitar, but it's equally at home in the collection of an experienced player who wants a smaller instrument without sacrificing genuine musical performance.
TAYLOR ES-B ELECTRONICS + BUILT-IN TUNER
This GS Mini-e is ready to plug in thanks to Taylor's ES-B electronics.
The system gives you convenient onboard control for amplified playing along with an integrated digital chromatic tuner, making this an especially practical guitar for lessons, rehearsals, songwriting sessions, travel and live performance.
SPECIAL EDITION HONEYBURST
The Honeyburst finish is what takes this particular GS Mini to another level visually.
Its warm burst treatment gives the spruce top a richer, more distinctive personality while the natural back, sides and neck create an attractive contrast. A black pickguard, chrome hardware and classic 4mm faux-pearl dot inlays complete the clean Taylor aesthetic.
It's unmistakably a GS Mini—but with considerably more visual personality.
