I just traded for, and will receive Tuesday, a Ltd. Rosewood edition. I've never really had a mini move me, found them almost difficult to play. I think it's the medium strings that have thrown me in the past, but I can tinker with that when I get it.

I am enjoying my Mini rosewood. Let me know if you change out the strings; I'd be curious about the results. Someone at a local shop told me they didn't think it would make much difference to go from mediums to lights. But I don't think they are very familiar with the Minis as they deal mostly in high end vintage guitars.

I have a GS Mini-M that I bought at Fazio's Frets and Friends when they first came out.  I love it, but it's currently on loan to my younger sister's 11 year old granddaughter.

Anyone have anything to add here.....we have some recent new mini's on the forum.

Yeah, I don't see how I can change the poll to add an additional mini, once you've voted. I'm in the same boat...picked up a 2nd mini (hog).
