This is the best comparison review I have ever seen.

You got a subscription just for this video. You took the time not only to play the instruments but show the different models, explain the differences, the unique qualities and sales faff, and played them all in a similar fashion. I salute you sir. I had felt this was the guitar for me. You may even have made a sale down the road (curse you nickles and dimes).

I have a Mahogany and it is absolutely the best. I play it almost every day and I can’t believe how it sounds, plays. I am relatively new to playing and just in the learning process and this guitar has really helped me so much, I love it. It is so much fun to own and highly recommend it. Great review Chris, you are always so informative and fun to watch. Thank you for all of your great reviews. Brad from Babylon, New York.

These guitars are amazing!! I wish Taylor would release a small scale guitar like this but with a cutaway. Maybe a GS Mini-EC in the future would be great!! Love your videos

I’ve got a the koa version....over time it has developed a really rich sound. Highly recommend.

I'm 6'3" 400lbs as wide as I am tall, and I adore my Mahogany GS Mini, it feels and plays like an electric guitar.

The walnut was the bomb. Very impressive. Loved the tone and bass was pronounced, even throughout the ranges. Would definitely buy.

Owned it for years, became one of my main acoustics, you can be sure that any difficult stuff for a standard acoustic, becomes much easier on the great gs mini

The Koa looked amazing. I am pleasantly surprised by the Walnut and ovangkol mini.

The Koa sounds like a ukelale. The spruce tops sound like Martin's and the mahogany has the richest most pleasant tone. My sister just gifted me with a GS Mini Mahogany ... I was amazed at the quality and tone 👍💓 Thank you Taylor for producing these gems!

the koa, ovangkol, and walnut all sound the most amazing to me. nice sound for a little guitar.

Just got a GS Mini-e Ovangkol today from my local shop. It was the last one. Absolutely love it, I was torn between the Walnut and Ovangkol, and tried them both for about two hours. My heart and ear decided for the Ovangkol, now at home I'm having a blast playing it. They are all excellent guitars.

I can't actually play guitar, but out of all these, the Koa definitely sounds the best to my ears. I've been playing a bit on a $60 classic nylon string "Stagg C440", but it's still very tempting to go for a Koa GS Mini. Very tough choices because it's very hard to audition them physically these days. And then nowadays there's the Koa Plus, which is absolutely gorgeous. I really like the idea of a more compact guitar though, but I think I have to get better to get to the point where I'd appreciate this more. Reason I comment now is I've found myself watching this video for the 4th or 5th time ._.

GS minis are fantastic guitars. I already had a mahogany, but couldn't resist picking up a koa on the BOGO sale Taylor is having. I picked it up when I bought a 214ce, and I must say the koa has become my favorite guitar. Absolutely gorgeous guitar! The mahogany is louder (honestly it even seems louder than the 214) and warmer than the koa, but the koa is more articulate and sounds terrific. You really can't go wrong with any of the GS minis.

I own the mahogany one and I love it sooo much. I've had it for about 6 years now and it's still my favourite acoustic guitar :)

Mahogany for me. It sounds sweet and intimate. Koa a close second, with more projection; to me it sounded country&western. The spruce ones were all fine, but quite indistinct.

I own a monogamy, and now I want a koa... thank man, for taking the time of making this videos! 🙌🏻

I never seen anyone fall asleep after every song they play. Great bedtime music.

Not long after viewing this video I came across a used GS Mini in mahogany, for $50 less than the new price. I pulled the trigger and when I went to pick it up I found out that it had the Taylor pickup already installed (that detail wasn't in the product description). That was a nice bonus, even though I don't own an amp! I've only owned it for a couple of days, but I already love it.
