New (Koa) Guitar Day
« on: October 20, 2016, 12:25:11 PM »
Hello all!

Been in the market for a GS mini Koa since they came out. I thought the tops were just stunning, especially the ones with some sapwood. I've been waiting for awhile to get one that really struck me, and I finally did! I think the consensus is Taylor hit it out of the park with the GS mini. The Koa's, for me, hit it out of the atmosphere. The looks, the sound, are both beautiful!

Thanks for reading  :)
