Somehow I felt so nostalgic, made me remember beautiful days in past, greeneries, lakes, rain, old school, first love, friends, my mom. This is so beautiful. This made me cry.
I listen to this daily good sir. I’m going through a separation which can only be described with a piece of music like this. It was a holy relationship of healing and lots of hard work. Thank you for recording this, I bought this exact guitar because it’s tone touched my heart and yes it does every time I play it, to now heal myself. 🙏🏼
Best demo of this model I’ve seen. Really shows off how clear and defined it is as well as its dynamic range. Truly punches above its size. Wonderful musicianship too.
Thank you. I’ve been agonizing over the decision whether to buy this one or a Baby Martin. I’ve decided and just purchased this after listening to your beautiful demonstration. 💖
Nice playing! Looking to get back into fingerstyle guitar after a couple years of baritone ukulele and prefer smaller bodies. I just love the sound of that Taylor Mini with a mahogany top. Done. Ordering one this weekend. Thanks!
Wow! Absolutely beautiful playing! The guitar sounds amazing as well. I am an adult beginner at guitar. I purchased this same guitar that you’re playing in the video two years ago and never got around to playing it. I just got it out of the bag yesterday and I want to put some new strings on it. Something that would be very easy for a beginner to play. Could you recommend a good set of strings for a beginner? Easy to press down on till I get used to playing for two or three months / building up some strength in my fingers and calluses as well. I was a professional drummer for 35 years, now I would like to learn to play guitar. Thank you for any advice. I saved this video to my favorites! Take care.
It’s been a few years since I posted the video. Might be in the description box or in the video. But in those days I played Santa Cruz strings. Could well be that they were a set of low tensions.
Is that only that guitar your playing? Sounds like different guitars are playing in the background. Sorry for the stupid question just want to know. It is extremely beautiful and I love it.
Friedrich ,me again, Robin. I have listened to your video---I simply adore it! You are very talented do you have any suggestions on playing this guitar when I get mine at the end of the month?? Is there music to this piece you're playing?? Thank you!
Gosh. It’s been a while. But I think in that vid it was a Lewitt LCT 640 and LCT 340 in a Stereo pair - into an Audient iD 14- logic X - stock plug ins.
Hey mate nice playing! I'm very interested in this guitar, just wondering if this is using an internal pickup (if it has one) or just mic'd up? sounds superb!
This easily competes with my $2000 300 series Taylor and I’m on my way to buy one of these right now lol only gripe is I wish it came with a 1 3/4 nut width but I’ll manage.
@@amritawhitman8112 Glad I could help.. :) personally I prefer the all Mahogany one...Lovely too is the Koa. But the hog has a lovely warmth. Let me know what you pick :)
@@cvrfkoh Thank you again! I'm left handed and I thought I would try to learn to play right handed and bought a beautiful Yamaha guitar FS800T in December, but I just don't have the dexterity I need in my right hand, so I'm going to talk to Guitar Center and see if I can trade it in to buy this one instead. Fortunately Taylor does make a left-handed version. Have you found that the Santa Cruz strings you used really make a difference? I've seen so many videos about this guitar but yours really sounds the best. That's why I thought it was the electric version.
I just got my mini mahogany yesterday and I love the sound and size of it. But for some reason mine doesn’t look like yours. Yours has more striking brown colors and a reddish pick guard. Mine doesn’t look like that

That's possibly one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard, absolutely fantastic, remarkable playing, just stunning
Somehow I felt so nostalgic, made me remember beautiful days in past, greeneries, lakes, rain, old school, first love, friends, my mom.
This is so beautiful.
This made me cry.
It definitely has a nostalgia :) Thank you for the listen/view and comment.

Bought this guitar a week ago. Love it. Saw lots of great TH-cam reviews but this one is by far and away the best demo. Amazing.
Awesome playing. I could watch and listen to this all day long. I had no idea my little guitar could sound like that.
Best demo of this model I’ve seen. Really shows off how clear and defined it is as well as its dynamic range. Truly punches above its size. Wonderful musicianship too.
Beautiful...just beautiful. VERY talented guitarist. Thank you.
Inspiring! What a piece. Thank you for posting.
WOW!! I just bought one of these guitars. Maybe, if I live long enough, I will be able to play like that. My compliments and appreciation sir.
Love my gs mini mahogany and love this video. I come back often to listen.
My gawd this man can play.
God, that's such a gorgeous piece. The harmonics are so, so lovely.
Thank you. I’ve been agonizing over the decision whether to buy this one or a Baby Martin. I’ve decided and just purchased this after listening to your beautiful demonstration. 💖
Wow that absolutely blew me away. Very moving and emotional. Picking one of these up tomorrow. Thank you so much for that bit of listening heaven
You're welcome :)

Nice playing! Looking to get back into fingerstyle guitar after a couple years of baritone ukulele and prefer smaller bodies. I just love the sound of that Taylor Mini with a mahogany top. Done. Ordering one this weekend. Thanks!

Came here for the review as I played one of these guitars today at a GC and loved it...but not as much as your playing! WOW...that is fantastic!
Tanner Boil thanks :)

Wow , flat out amazing
Convinced me. That was beautiful.
Thank you! Wonderful playing.

Beautiful guitar demo, wow 🙌🏽
A wonderful achievement by Taylor is The Taylor Gs Mini Rosewood Acoustic Electric Guitar
Well...this one is mahogany :)
You are truly talented, and blessed from above ✝️
Very beautifull
Getting my first guitar tomorrow, and this is the model I chose. Hello from 2024 🙌
Thanks for the help !!!
note perfect but played with such feeling, I'm blown away & I've been playing guitar for 50 years
something about that peice is invoking some sadness of being lost or lonely
came here to listen to the guitar and couldn't stop listening to how great you played it
MrSuperbarca527 thanks :)
Great playing and lovely sounding guitar!
I have exactly like... cannot play like that BUT love it just the same!
Very good
Wow. Gorgeous, everything. Wow.
1 minute more and im gonna fall to sleep! So relaxing....
I have the GS Mini in Spruce and one in KOA (Plus).
The Taylor GS Mini’s are remarkable guitars regardless of tone woods. Sounds great!
Nice feel dude 🔥💯
I made my final decision buying this guitar by watching this video. Thank you so much.
Mine arrives tomorrow. I'm super psyched. By the way... how to I "down load" the finger picking skills? ;-)
Wow! Absolutely beautiful playing! The guitar sounds amazing as well. I am an adult beginner at guitar.

so u bought it 4 years ago now. Have you got around to playing it?
Do you have the music for the piece your playing? Thanks!
Beautiful
Watching your video made up my mind to buy one. May i know if you change the strings or is it still the original?
It’s been a few years since I posted the video. Might be in the description box or in the video. But
in those days I played Santa Cruz strings. Could well be that they were a set of low tensions.
Very well done!!
Amazing!
You deserve wwwaaayyy more subs
elijah Stroebel thank you :)
Were you using a Tonewood Amp here? Sounds great!
Hello and thank you. But no. I don’t own a TWA. The reverb in that is a 3rd party plug in by LiquidSonics. It’s called Seventh Heaven.
Fantastic❤
Awesome!
What is your preferred mic placement for the Lewitt when recording this guitar? Sounds so good man!
I chop and change placements all the time. But generally a stereo pair.
Is that only that guitar your playing? Sounds like different guitars are playing in the background. Sorry for the stupid question just want to know. It is extremely beautiful and I love it.
what audio recording did you use? this is great!
Audient iD14 with a Lewitt LCT 640 and 340...Logic 9
Friedrich---very nice! What is your setup? Pickup? Thanks for the video,it's helped me pick the mahogany GS Mini! Just Beautiful!! Robin
Hi Robin. Thank you. No PUP in this one. Mic (Lewitt LCT 640) - Into Audient id14 - Logic X
Friedrich ,me again, Robin. I have listened to your video---I simply adore it! You are very talented do you have any suggestions on playing this guitar when I get mine at the end of the month?? Is there music to this piece you're playing?? Thank you!
Best tone so far! What's your signal chain, please?
Gosh. It’s been a while. But I think in that vid it was a Lewitt LCT 640 and LCT 340 in a Stereo pair - into an Audient iD 14- logic X - stock plug ins.
Calum Graham.. farewell
In the description box
Yeah thats quite a demo sir.
Amazing how it sounds! Can you tell how that was recorded? Which microphone did you use? Thanks a lot.
What are you using to record the sound? A microphone or is the guitar plugged in and using a pickup? Great playing!!
Gorgeous!
Jess Bridgette thank you :)
One word: WOW!!
Hey mate nice playing! I'm very interested in this guitar, just wondering if this is using an internal pickup (if it has one) or just mic'd up? sounds superb!
Mic'd up only... :)
Amazing !!!!!
This easily competes with my $2000 300 series Taylor and I’m on my way to buy one of these right now lol only gripe is I wish it came with a 1 3/4 nut width but I’ll manage.
That makes two of us... My only gripe.
Cool Fred!
Thank you for this beautiful demo. So this is the electric one, correct?
Hi Amrita. You’re welcome...and no. This one came with no electronics. I installed a K&K pure mini quite some time after this video was taken.
@@cvrfkoh Wow - that's even more impressive! Thank you for responding to my question. Now I REALLY want this guitar!
@@amritawhitman8112 Glad I could help.. :) personally I prefer the all Mahogany one...Lovely too is the Koa. But the hog has a lovely warmth. Let me know what you pick :)

Whats the song you start off with?? I really want to learn that
What string gauge are you using brother? You played so well i was blown away.
I just got my mini mahogany yesterday and I love the sound and size of it. But for some reason mine doesn’t look like yours. Yours has more striking brown colors and a reddish pick guard. Mine doesn’t look like that
Got my gs mini and want to play this, do you have the music. I’m inspired 😀

Thanks a lot 😀
