Taylor’s GS Mini is one of few guitars that can stake a claim as a modern classic. As of its 10th anniversary in 2020, it had sold over 350,000 units and has undoubtedly added significantly to that tally since then. With Taylor celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, it was a no-brainer that the GS Mini would get the gold treatment.
The GS Mini came about as an evolution of the Baby Taylor, which proved popular with guitar players thanks to its small size. Bob Taylor recognized the need for small but full-sounding acoustic guitars, so Taylor opted to shrink down their ultra-popular Grand Symphony format, whilst aiming to retain its tonality.
