Default Taylor GS Mini US-T Issue

This may be the wrong location for this, but I have a 2014 GS Mini E-Koa with the US-T pickup. It is AWFUL about feedback, but after farther testing, it’s only when playing the A string. If I mute the A string and strum, nothing....play the A string strumming or finger style, terrible feedback, low frequency type. Any ideas? I’ll probably have to take it to a tech, there’s just not one close by.

Call Taylor - seriously. They have always been super helpful.

It depends on how loud you want your guitar. I used my GS Mini for a really loud rock and roll gig in place of my Telecaster because I was nursing a pulverized collarbone back to health. I used a K&K Pure Mini in it and added the secret weapon, a Planet Waves sound hole cover.

I had no problems with feedback at levels that would have been impossible had I left the sound hole open.
