This little guitar has amazing sound for its small profile. I had been looking for an acoustic with a cutaway so that I could play higher up the neck and this fit the bill. I'm used to my PRS hollowbody and my Les Paul so it was also important to me that it was easy to play. Add the fact that I can travel with it effortlessly and I can honestly say my GS mini is going up for sale. My only complaint is that it doesn't have a truss rod so set ups are dependent on the height of the saddle. Mine buzzes a bit cause I like the action low and I'm still trying to find the right balance between that, string weight and playability. But all in all I am extremely pleased. Adorama gave me an incredible deal as well. cheaper than anyone else. Thank you for that!

I needed a small travel guitar that I could easily play jazz chords up the neck. The Cargo had exactly what I was looking for. Small profile, a cutaway and the ability to take it with me without worrying about the drying effects of air travel. I am so used to my PRS Hollowbody and LesPaul that I was hoping for an acoustic that was easy to play. And then of course - it has great sound! I am extremely pleased that I have a guitar that answers most of my needs. The only drawback for me is the lack of a truss rod to make set ups easier. I lowered the saddle a bit but now I'm getting some buzz - so I still need to noodle with the relationship between low action and lack of buzzing. Love it though! And Adorama gave it to me for $500 less than everyone else. Sweet!
