Love the GS Mini but wished it was a better quality instrument and with a larger nut? Well here it is.
This a beautiful solid wood GS Mini from builder Sean Spurling of San Francisco/Spain. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Specs are as follows: Body: Adirondack spruce top, Cocobolo B&S, and sound port Neck: Mahogany with Dovetail Joint, C-Shape (like a Strat) but a little flatter Fingerboard: Ebony with EVO nickel free fretwire Headstock: Cocobolo with ebony faceplate Tuners: Gotoh Nut Width: 1-3/4" Neck Thickness @ 1st: 0.875" Neck Thickness @ 9th: 0.9275" Saddle Spacing: 2-3/16" Rest of the specs are the same as Taylor's GS Mini, see here: https://www.taylorguitars.com/guitar.../gs-mini#specs $2900 SHIPPED to CONUS ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Totally love this guitar. I have written Bob Taylor 3 times asking for the GS mini body shape to be a new series. The 316 mini, 516 mini, 816 mini, etc.

Yea, I doubt that's going to happen. A lot of people hate the 23.5" scale length.

What a cutie!
It might be more accurate to call this a GS Mini SIZE. With All solid, Luthier built, premium woods, and so on. I doubt it has the NT neck. What kind of neck join? And you might describe the neck carve/shape... Looking forward to your new build in the Custom Shop! Carry on and Have fun Paul

Yikes! Lovely guitar!
Looks a lot like a birdsbeak headstock joint, similar to the ones that John Greven so skillfully used on several models that I have the pleasure of owning. Here's his neck process if not familiar http://www.grevenguitars.com/birds-beak-demo.html Best w your sale

Courtesy bump. Looks like a good guitar for someone that likes or needs the GS Mini form factor but wants to upgrade.
