TAYLOR GS MINI-E SPECIAL EDITION DRAGON COLORFUL [FREE GIGBAG]

Cradle the Essence of the Dragon

Coming along only once every 12 years, the Year of the Dragon is said to embody the spirit of honor, luck, and success. To commemorate the arrival of 2024's majestic Chinese zodiac, Taylor has hatched the GS Mini-e Spruce special edition acoustic-electric guitar. Bearing the company's coveted small-scale Grand Symphony body style, the GS Mini-e Spruce projects balanced and sonorous sonics through the use of spruce and sapele tonewoods. Onboard features, including a neo-tropical matte-finished mahogany neck and complete body matte finish, ensure judicious comfort and navigability, while die-cast chrome hardware, Crelicam ebony adornments, and traditional X-bracing bring to the table all that's to be expected in a premium Taylor instrument. Act fast — this tradition-defined fire-breather of a GS Mini-e is available only for a limited time at Sweetwater.

Soaring spruce and sapele sonics

Structured to peak Taylor satisfaction, the GS Mini-e Spruce's combination of spruce and sapele tonewoods delivers more than enough power for myriad acoustic-focused playing scenarios. Due to its torrefied Sitka spruce top, the GS Mini-e develops clear, responsive tone with enhanced structural stability, while the layered sapele back and sides provide warmth and balance akin to mahogany. Collectively, torrefied and layered tonewoods offer enhanced resilience to temperature and humidity changes, making the GS Mini-e Spruce an optimal option for travel and outdoor practice sessions. Wherever you decide to play, rest assured your sound will ring out loud and proud.

Ultra-portable acoustic guitar

The limited-edition GS Mini-e Spruce acoustic guitar features a scaled-down version of Taylor's popular Grand Symphony body shape. With a total length that’s just over 36 inches, the GS Mini-e is a perfect travel companion for road trips, subway rides, and even flights. Not only is it great for camping, festivals, and gigs, but it’s also a reliable pick for new players who have smaller hands.

Beaming with Taylor charisma

Ambitious, confident, and charming are three words Sweetwater guitarists have used to describe this special edition GS Mini-e Spruce acoustic. Durable die-cast chrome hardware and Taylor tuning machines crown this guitar's creature comforts, ensuring optimal intonation support for prolonged playing situations. Further down, a responsibly sourced Crelicam ebony fingerboard featuring Italian acrylic/faux pearl inlays and silver dot side markers ensure pin-point notational accuracy and stunning visual appeal. A NuBone nut and micarta saddle complete the instrument's string path for authentic string vibration. Of course, this GS Mini-e Spruce special edition acoustic-electric would not be complete without its showpiece Year of the Dragon top-side artwork, which is destined to become the definitive conversation piece of your collection.
