Building on the successful launch of the Ben Harper Gold Label 512e Grand Concert earlier this year, we're excited to share an encore collaboration with the GRAMMY-winning singer-songwriter and guitarist: a GS Mini model that bears his distinctive visual character and reflects his affinity for compact, expressive acoustics.
This unique take on our beloved GS Mini features a solid top of torrefied Sitka spruce, yielding a bold midrange response accented by a touch of aged-in warmth and sweetness from our proprietary roasting process. Medium-gauge strings lend a dash of sonic hef helping this GS Mini deliver a sonic punch well above its modest size, while ES2 electronics provide pro-level amplified tone for live performance or recording.
A characteristically slender Taylor neck with an accommodating 1-11/16-inch nut width offers a breezy, relaxed fretting feel at any skill level, which beautifully complements the guitar's compact, lap-friendly profile. Its scaled-down frame also makes this model an ideal choice for travel, small gigs, campfire jams and everyday practice or songwriting sessions.
Visually, the Ben Harper GS Mini-e Special Edition references the distinctive look of his Gold Label model, most notably with a custom shaded edgeburst top, cream pickguard, and cream-and-black rosette. Other appointments include a gloss-finish body, a matte-finish neck, traditional 4mm dot fretboard inlays in Italian acrylic, chrome tuning machines, a custom-designed interior label, and a structured gig bag.
