A 1 3/4 neck GS mini ... maybe offer a solid wood version.

I think many would also suggest this as well. ;)

 Bring Back the full size KOA guitars stands, Maple and Cocobolo also.

  This would be cool
  A GS Mini body in Cocobolo, full 24.7/8" short scale neck 1 3/4"nut, slotted head stock with Florentine cutaway in Tobacco burst Adirondack top, Adirondack bracing    8)

I'm sure they will have more 6XX models with advanced bracing and torrefied sitka tops.

a mini gs nylon classical would be interesting

I really am "done" with getting another guitar.  While GAS hits, for me it quickly fades as soon as I grab something (or even think of) the wonderful stable I am fortunate to have.  But this mini in nylon is a brilliant suggestion ...and make it a cedar top, please.  I'd succumb to that really fast.

Yep - I agree with all of that.

you may rethink that, once you get a chance to audition a 614ceFE ;)

granted the example i played may have been 'uber-stellar' & until i have
the chance to try out a couple more within driving distance to see if it's
not just a 'fluke', but since it sounds great, to my ear, the 614ceFE i've
already played is not a 'fluke' to me & i wouldn't be too surprised if there
are some 14 814ce models that are traded in on these in the near future :-\

Yes. I've the opportunity to compare the 614ce-FE with a new model 2014 814ce and they are that good.

Guitarsan, I think we live in the same area...did you try it at the local GC?  I definitely need to head over there, if so...

imho, yep :)
Think a particular store we both know might have one in stock?
uh, um, er ...
i'm not so sure :-[

the GC sales rep said that there were 30 available system-wide & i'm not sure if
that's just GC, or if that includes MF, m123, zzounds, woodwind & brasswind, etc

Just talked to my local GC...they had one of the first editions...sold it the same day it came in :( .  Said at this point they still have 24 in their system...so that means they're 6 down from when michael checked.  these things are selling quick...hope to just try one at some point :)

that's available for order as a Custom now, with the possible exception of
the redwood top, but it might be available under the Custom Wood option

Yes, at the Matthews, NC store back last November. You might have seen my "first play" review thread on here? If not, check it out. It was a rushed play, but I knew the guitar would not last long. You can do a search on guitarcenter.com on the page for the guitar. Not a store within several hundred miles that stocks one right now.

You know, "in the moment", I wasn't even tempted to buy it after playing that 614ce-FE, although it is one fine guitar. Most likely because I had just bought that life changing Custom GC.

And now, here I await my 656ce-FE, to arrive in the next few weeks.....  8)
