Taylor is known for their amazing acoustic guitar craftsmanship. No one expected them to spend too much time making a bass, let alone a miniature sized one. But low and behold, they did just that and it came out awesome. Featuring a <span style='font-weight:bold;'>compact bass design</span>, <span style='font-weight:bold;'>bass tailored Taylor appointments</span>, and <span style='font-weight:bold;'>plug and play electronics</span>, the GS Mini-e bass is great for guitar players looking to mess around or young bassists who are just starting out.<br/><br/><span style='font-weight:bold;'>Compact Bass Design</span><br/>Measuring roughly 10&quot; shorter than your typical bass, the 23.5&quot; scale length GS Mini-e Bass produces powerful, natural-sounding bass notes with its Sitka spruce top. Like the other GS Mini models, it&#39;s smooth and easy to play, but gives you the low notes you want from a bass guitar. You can use it to learn bass, to add some acoustic flare to an impromptu jam session, or to advance your songwriting prowess. A 20-fret West African ebony fretboard sits on a sapele neck, designed to give you a comfortable playing experience.<br/><br/><span style='font-weight:bold;'>Bass Tailored Taylor Appointments</span><br/>Speaking of strings, a bass of this nature can&#39;t use just any stings. That&#39;s why Taylor teamed up with D&#39;Addario to create specially-designed, custom nylon-core strings with phosphor bronze wrap wire. These strings offer great tone, but enough flexibility to make the playing experience enjoyable for anyone. Taylor also came up with a dual pronged patented bridge pin design for this model, to assure the strings can be quickly and efficiently replaced, but without compromising the strength of their hold. Taylor also threw in die-cast chrome tuners, a tortoise pickguard and a three ring rosette. <br/><br/><span style='font-weight:bold;'>Plug and Play Electronics</span><br/>To cap it all off, the GS Mini-e bass can be amplified to share its sweet low-end sound with a larger audience. Taylor&#39;s ES-B electronics system is featured in this instrument, making use of the Taylor Expression System 2 Piezo design elements. Coupled with an onboard preamp and built-in digital chromatic tuner with LED display, the ES-B will capture all the Mini-e bass sound and let you customize it with volume and tone controls. This acoustic mini bass really gives you bang for your buck.<br/><br/><span style='font-weight:bold;'>Features:</span><br/>•,GS Mini-e Acoustic-Electric Bass with 23 ½ Scale Length<br/>•,Layered Sapele Body Wood with Sitka Spruce Top<br/>•,Sapele Neck With West African Ebony Fretboard<br/>•,Taylor ES-B Electronics<br/>•,Dual Pronged Patented Bridge Pin Design <br/>•,Die-Cast Chrome Tuners, Tortoise Pickguard and Three Ring Rosette<br/>•,Includes Hard Bag<br/><br/><br/><span style='font-weight:bold;'>Get your Taylor GS Mini-e Bass Acoustic-Electric Bass Guitar today at the guaranteed lowest price from Sam Ash &nbsp;with our 45-day return and 60-day price protection policy.</span><br/><br/><span style='font-weight:bold;font-style:italic;'>??This product can expose you to chemicals including Lead, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
