For those of us who revere Taylor's GS Mini, look at what Sigma is offering. If you are bent on the GS Mini's build & dimensions, you can get this Sigma GSME for $480 (Davis GMC). Acoustics do not bring out the best of my guitar playing but I would not hesitate to recommend something very playable / comfortable for individuals who cannot come quite to terms with standard-sized acoustics.
