Taylor sound quality from this perfect small body travel/ couch guitar!

If you are looking for the legendary Taylor quality of sound but either you mostly need a travel/ small body guitar or your budget is limited but you do not want to compromise on quality: look no further! GS Mini will meet all your expectations! Love at first sight and sound for me :-) and I could not enjoy more my come back to playing guitar daily on my living room coach after a very long break.

PROS:
- high build quality
- crisp (but not too much), full, warm (probably thanks to mohogany solid top) and unexpectedly loud sound this small body can produce
- easy to tune
- looks more expensive than its reasonably "tailored" price
- easy to plug with a dedicated pick-up (not included)
- Elixir bronze phosphor strings
- you can take it on board of any plane

CONS:
- bit expensive against its close competitors but see all PROs above
- if you need/ want to go "plugged", it seems more reasonable to invest into GS mini-e with the built-in higher end factory pick-up system rather than to invest EUR 100 into the GS mini dedicated pick-up (no equalizer).
You cannot go wrong here!
