Tropical Mahogany Used On : GS Mini Mahogany, Baby Mahogany, Limited Editions, Custom Guitars A hardwood top with more density than spruce or cedar The stiffness initially yields a bright tone that gradually gets deeper Used On: GS Mini Mahogany, Baby Mahogany, Limited Editions, Custom Guitars Harder, denser woods like mahogany and koa that are used on the back and sides of a guitar are sometimes used as tops Their stiffness initially translates into a bright tone and tends to need more play-in time to open up, but the more a mahogany-top guitar is played, the more it develops overtones that contribute to a fuller, richer sound.

A mahogany-top guitar might appeal to rootsy players who like a little extra punchiness in their tone Goes Well With: Blues and roots players, anyone who likes a slightly more burly or punchy quality to their tone.

Layered Sapele While the rich tones of solid wood remain unmatched, a layered wood construction can yield great sound in a beautiful, durable and affordable instrument Such is the case with layered sapele, in which we use interior and exterior veneers of sapele with a core layer of poplar between them.

One of the benefits of layered wood for guitars is extra resilience in the face of fluctuating humidity conditions This comes in handy for guitars like the GS Mini and Baby Taylor models, which are travel-friendly guitars that may be more directly exposed to different environments.

All Taylor layered-wood models feature a solid wood top to optimize the tonal response ES-Go The ES-Go is an aftermarket, passive magnetic soundhole pickup that was developed specifically for the GS Mini.

Anyone can install it in minutes with just a screwdriver thanks to the pre-fitted connecting bracket inside the guitar Pair it with the V-Cable™, which features a built-in volume control on the cord.

Non-cutaway There’s a lot to be said for the clean, traditional look of a non-cutaway acoustic guitar , which is why we offer a line of non-cutaway models If you don’t plan to play in the upper register, or simply prefer the symmetrical hourglass contours of a guitar, a non-cutaway model is a great option.
