Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Taylor's GS Mini-e Bass puts acoustic-electric bass operation into the compact GS Mini body. A solid torrefied Sitka spruce top and layered sapele back and sides are described as delivering clear low end and note definition. The short 23-inch scale and narrow 42.8 mm nut width create a more guitar-friendly feel, while onboard electronics, volume and tone controls, and a built-in tuner support amplified practice or stage use. A gig bag is listed for transport.
