Taylor GS Mini Maple Acoustic Electric Bass Guitar

The GS Mini Bass offers players a remarkably inviting small-scale acoustic bass thats compact, lightweight and ultra-comfortable on the hands. This model, features richly figured layered maple back and sides. Adding to the popular heritage of Taylor’s GS Mini family, this four-string bass sibling is even more impressive for its ability to create natural-sounding bass notes despite a condensed 23-1/2-inch scale length about 10 inches shorter than the scale length of a standard bass guitar. Part of the magic is the custom nylon-core strings (with phosphor bronze wrap wire) developed with our friends at DAddario exclusively for the bass (in fact, no other strings will work on it). Together withTaylor’spatented dual-prong bridge pin design, the bass not only sounds great but also yields a slinky feel. And with the condensed fret spacing, playing bass is now physically easier on anyones hands, from kids to bass newbies to seasoned bass players craving a couch-friendly option. Its an inspiring tool to have on hand for writing, recording demos, and jamming with friends. The bass comes equipped withTaylor’s ES-B onboard electronics, along with a structured gig bag featuring adjustable backpack straps for easy portability.
