    I have a GS Mini-e Koa Plus with a shaded burst finish, and I couldn't be happier. I've got it strung up with 13's and it sounds great. It can be a bit smaller for my over 6' friends, but I'm very comfortable with it. I use it mostly for chord work and rarely stray above the 10th fret, so I don't find it difficult to maneuver.

    1/2/23. Just watched this the other day. Took your advice. I went out and picked up a gt on clearance for 1399. Got the Koa gs for the 299 add on. Got both for about the same as the gt retail. Playing the gt and its great. Koa gs, I'm not sure if I'll keep or sell it in the box yet. Great channel guys. Baxter, you pay for ambience. $8 for a pbr in the right dive. Worth every penny.

    Beautiful! I’m really more of a Martin fan although I love all American made guitars ( Acoustic as well as electric ). These things must be a fantastic couch guitar and as tempting as these maybe I’m most probably still going to go with the 12 fret Martin 000-15SM ( not sure if that number’s right? But the one that’s the 12 fret w/mahogany back and sides with the slotted headstock 🤙 I think for around 1,700 that’s a,pretty good ‘Bang for the buck’ guitar and especially since I don’t own a 12 fret yet. Really dig the show you two, I watch it practically daily, thanks for all the great information you guys share with us!

    7-25-23 Taylor has the Sapele GS Mini on sale at this time for $500 minus the EZ Go pickup which is $100 more and install it yourself in 10 minutes if you want or need a pickup. No it's not a top of the line pickup but perfectly good for home playing or even busking. GREAT deal.

    But Taylor is virtually the only competitor, in the history of their company, that has forced them to completely revisit and rethink everything they do…… You like your Martin because of Taylor’s uncredited influence……

    I had a nice Taylor 317e (USA), picked it up used for a great price, sadly it had that odd 'note resonance' issue on the low G. GC was able to hook me up thankfully. I ended up picking up a Taylor Academy 10e (MIM)...holy crap, this guitar plays itself. Amazing sounding acoustically, great feeling, easy to play, and for the price nothing came close. To me it sounded better than guitars in the $1500 price range.

    For an all solid smaller bodied guitar, how do you guys think the Martin Dreadnought Jr. compares to the Taylor GT? I've had a Martin DJr.e. for about three years and am a big fan of it but haven't had the chance to try any of the GTs yet. Cool outro jam as well, would be good to have these included more often.

    I'll say it again here. A "GOOD" guitar has always been about a month's salary for the average American. The eastman stuff is good, but it's not a Taylor or Martin. I use this one on my kids all the time. Totally Cringeworthy, it makes them fold up like a cheap tent every time. Use with Caution. #DabMasterYeetBro!
