Independent shopping perspective
Built around Taylor’s compact Grand Symphony Mini body, this Oakland Athletics edition keeps a 23.5-inch scale that the design describes as making chord shapes easier to form. Its solid torrefied Sitka spruce top and layered sapele back and sides pair with a mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard. The layered construction is identified as less susceptible to temperature and humidity changes, making the guitar suited to taking along for casual playing away from home. A Taylor structured gig bag is part of the package.
