GS Mini-e Special Edition, Trans Black

The GS Mini-e Special Edition, Trans Black combines stylish design with the award-winning features of Taylor’s GS Mini Series. With a semi-transparent black soundboard that subtly reveals the underlying spruce grain, this special edition guitar offers a visually striking aesthetic. The solid torrefied Sitka spruce top and layered sapele back and sides deliver a clean, well-balanced sound with remarkable projection, perfect for a wide range of playing environments. The roasting process of the spruce top adds a unique, aged tonal warmth, while the firestripe pickguard enhances its visual appeal.

Designed for comfort and versatility, the scaled-down Grand Symphony body, paired with Taylor’s slender neck and shorter scale length, ensures an effortless playing experience, whether you’re at home, traveling, or jamming with friends. Equipped with the ES-B pickup system for natural-sounding amplified tone and an integrated digital tuner, this guitar is ready for both stage and studio use. It comes complete with a structured gig bag for portability and protection.
