Hi Shea and welcome to the forum!
I think your mini looks great, I would trade you too. Personally I love anything that makes my guitar "special" or different from the rest. I love bear claw and was hoping for some on my HV Mini. I got a bit of striping...I don't know if one can ask for something as I think they are all boxed up and ready to go at Taylor.
I love the Mini's, I had one when they first came out but traded it for a Koa 12 string that Cigarfan tried to hide in his hat when he visited for a jam a few months ago,....ha. That's ok, I got caught trying to hide his Kinnard uke......when he wasn't looking..
Anyway....back to the Mini. I think these are great little guitars and happy to have one. I had been wanting a maple guitar but didn't really want to pay the $$ for a 600 series, this fit the bill perfectly.
