Wow! The nicest Mahogany Gs mini I’ve seen. I actually thought it was a Koa.

I bought my GS Mini-e Koa this past August. I don't play it as much as my 414, but it's a fun guitar to have around.

Here are my 2009 Mahogany top and my 2011 spruce top GS Minis. The spruce is a recent acquisition and rapidly becoming my favorite. The hog has an ES Go pickup.

Nice collection of Gs minis! I always wondered when the first batch of Spruce n Mahogany Gs minis were made by Taylor and you kind of answered my question! I believe both guitars have opened up nicely already.

Use mine ( GSMini e Rosewood) for gigs and worship quite regularly. Only change I've made on mine is fitted Taylor ebony bridge pins . I now use the new Martin Authentic 12-54 strings on all my guitars and they work really well. That's a really nice looking guitar , my only wish is that Taylor made a GS with a wider neck width option but as I use a capo a lot it's not s big deal

Mine is a mahogany with SUS heavy gauge strings. My son has been using this almost exclusively. [emoji16]

I've got a 2016 Taylor Mini-e Koa with the real ES2 that I bought new at Guitar Center at Thanksgiving 2016. Nice little axe!
