Features
  • GS Mini: A scaled-down body with a bold, full voice, delivering rich tone in a compact, comfortable, travel-friendly design.

  • Layered Koa: Like Taylor’s other layered wood options, layered koa features an all-wood laminated construction, in this case with an exterior layer of beautifully figured koa veneer and an interior layer of either koa or sapele, separated by a core layer of poplar. Though the tonal properties of layered wood aren’t as complex as solid wood, the construction method enables us to conserve tonewood resources and offer attractive, durable instruments at a more inviting price. A solid spruce top and Taylor craftsmanship ensure a clear, balanced tonal response.

  • The Taylor Neck: The Taylor Neck, originally called the NT Neck, was an original Bob Taylor innovation that grew from a foundation of slender, hand-friendly bolt-on necks and changed how builders and players think about acoustic guitar design. Optimized for exceptionally easy, precise adjustability, the NT Neck came to be known as a defining feature of Taylor guitars for decades to come.

  • Hawaiian Koa: As a tropical hardwood, a koa top will initially project a sparkling, focused tone, especially together with koa back and sides. But much of koa's sonic appeal comes with time and play — as the wood matures, its low-end character will emerge, yielding more warmth, depth, and sweetness with an added touch of overtone bloom in the midrange.

  • Expression System 2: The Taylor Expression System 2 (ES2) is a revolutionary pickup design that delivers the latest in Taylor’s ongoing innovation in acoustic guitar amplification. The heart of the Expression System 2 is Taylor’s patented behind-the-saddle pickup, which features three uniquely positioned and individually calibrated pickup sensors. The location of the sensors enables a more dynamic range of acoustic sound to be captured than ever before. Together with Taylor’s custom-designed “professional audio”-grade preamp, this system produces exceptional amplified tone and responsiveness. On stage through a PA, plugged into your favorite acoustic amplifier, or direct into recording software, the Expression System 2 faithfully conveys the voice of your Taylor guitar.
