The Taylor GS Mini-e Rosewood 50th Anniversary limited-edition acoustic-electric guitar is a compact yet sonically powerful instrument designed for musicians seeking an inviting companion. To celebrate Taylor Guitars' 50th anniversary, they've given their popular GS Mini a sophisticated makeover with unmistakable touches of elegance, including a natural torrefied Sitka spruce top, layered rosewood back and sides, and striking faux-tortoise pickguard that together create an acoustic powerhouse of tone.

Compact Body, Bold Tone

Over the years, countless musicians have fallen for the GS Mini's comfortable scaled-down body and hand-friendly 23-1/2" scale length, along with the robust tones that defy its petite proportions. Here, the torrefied top contributes to a played-in sound with a balanced, articulate tone profile. The rosewood back and sides visually complement the spruce top and add warmth, clarity and resonance. This pairing yields a warm low end, punchy midrange and shimmering highs for a surprisingly full voice in a small package.

Comfortable Body and Neck

The scaled-down Grand Symphony body and 23-1/2" scale length provide comfortable playability. Whether strumming chords or fingerpicking melodies, this GS Mini-e Rosewood 50th Anniversary limited-edition model makes an ideal companion for any player seeking an instrument that's as fun to play as it is to hear.

Onboard ES2 Electronics

Taylor's ES2 pickup system faithfully amplifies the guitar's acoustic properties. Three uniquely positioned pickup sensors capture a dynamic range of tones. Paired with Taylor's custom-designed preamp and easy-to-use volume, bass and treble controls, the ES2 system gives you total control over your amplified tone.
