Taylor

Description

The Taylor GS Mini-e Sunset Blvd brings a Guitar Center Exclusive Solar Flare design to a compact acoustic-electric guitar built for practice, songwriting and performance. Its solid torrefied Sitka spruce top and layered sapele back and sides deliver a warm, responsive acoustic voice, while X-bracing with Relief Rout supports the projection of the compact Grand Symphony Mini body. A comfortable 23.5" scale length makes the guitar easy to handle at home or on the road. Taylor ES-B electronics provide amplified sound and a built-in digital tuner, while a tan structured gig bag offers convenient protection during transport. Custom Anniversary fingerboard inlays, gold tuners and a commemorative Sunset Blvd back label complete this distinctive take on Taylor's popular GS Mini design.

Solid Torrefied Spruce Tone in a Compact Body

The Grand Symphony Mini body shape offers a comfortable playing experience for practice, songwriting and travel while delivering the projection players expect from a solid-top acoustic. Torrefied Sitka spruce contributes a warm, played-in character and responsive dynamics, while layered sapele back and sides provide a focused, balanced foundation. Taylor's X-bracing with Relief Rout supports the top's natural resonance, allowing the guitar to respond clearly to both delicate fingerpicking and energetic strumming. The compact design makes the GS Mini-e easy to keep close at hand, whether you're working through new ideas or playing with other musicians.

Short-Scale Playability With Genuine Ebony Fingerboard

A neo-tropical mahogany neck with Taylor's standard carve profile pairs with a genuine West African ebony fingerboard for a comfortable, familiar playing feel. The shorter 23.5" scale length reduces the distance between frets compared with a full-size Grand Auditorium, making chord stretches and position changes more manageable. A 1.688" nut width accommodates a variety of playing styles, while the 20-fret fingerboard provides ample range for chords and melodic passages. A genuine West African ebony bridge and matte neck finish round out a practical design suited to everyday playing.

Solar Flare Finish and Anniversary-Inspired Appointments

The custom Solar Flare top gives this Guitar Center Exclusive model a distinctive appearance, complemented by Taylor's thin 2.0 mil matte finish. Italian acrylic faux pearl Anniversary fingerboard inlays add decorative detail, while a commemorative Sunset Blvd back label identifies the special edition. Taylor Gold Mini tuning machines with gold buttons complete the coordinated appointments. These details distinguish the guitar from standard GS Mini models without changing the compact proportions and familiar playing experience that define the series.

ES-B Electronics With a Built-In Digital Tuner

Taylor's ES-B pickup and preamp system allows the GS Mini-e to connect directly to an acoustic amplifier, PA system or recording interface. The system captures the guitar's acoustic sound for amplified performance, while an integrated digital chromatic tuner makes it convenient to check tuning between songs or during practice. Onboard volume and tone controls provide straightforward adjustments without requiring external equipment. Whether you're performing a small acoustic set, recording a demo or practicing through an amplifier, the ES-B system adds practical flexibility to this compact instrument.

Compact Portability With an Included Structured Gig Bag

The GS Mini-e Sunset Blvd combines the portability of Taylor's compact Grand Symphony Mini design with the responsive sound of a solid torrefied Sitka spruce top and the convenience of onboard electronics. Its layered sapele construction, genuine ebony appointments and exclusive Solar Flare finish create a distinctive acoustic-electric suited to players who want a smaller instrument without giving up musical versatility. A Taylor tan structured gig bag provides protection during storage and transport. For songwriting, travel, practice and intimate performances, the Guitar Center Exclusive Taylor GS Mini-e Sunset Blvd acoustic-electric guitar offers a comfortable, expressive playing experience in a portable format.
