Hello everyone,
I started playing the folk guitar a few month ago with a washburn parlor (cedar top and mahogany)
A few weeks after that, I had the chance to try a GS MINI e rosewood in a music shop when I was travelling abroad.
It was love at first sight : the sound, the neck (i could finally play barre chords) and even the shape of the guitar.
Back then, i didn't have the budget to buy it but now, I am ready .
Like I said, I've tried the Rosewood one and really loved it ! But now, it's very difficult to find one since Taylor stopped to make it (I live in France).
I read several point of vues on layered wood. Some people are saying it doesn't influence the sound, some people are saying the contrary...
So, i'm a bit lost...
For sure, I want spruce top since I want a bright sound. I am looking for a small electro-acoustic guitar for mostly playing folk and pop. Mostly strumming while i'm singing.
I can easily find the spruce/walnut one so I would really appreciate if I could get your feedbacks on this matter.
Is there a sound /tone difference between the gs mini e spruce/rw and the gs mini e spruce/walnut ?
I have tried a celtic harp with walnut wood and the sound was pretty warm. I have no comparaison with guitars.
In the same time, if you could recommend me a good amp, i would be grateful. I am looking for a small amp for Acoustic guitar /voice - ukulele/voice - Electric guitar.
Thank you in advance for your help
