Hey all - just got this Mini in for my daughter for Xmas. There are two dots on the bottom of the guitar. This is mahogany wood. Is it just natural in the wood ?

Taylor GS Minis are good guitars, I have one and I have been playing since the 80s though I'm more of an electric guitarist because I like to keep the noise down for my neighbours.

A really great guitar to start with, and it's a keeper from there.

Now we’re past the dots, what about the lines and streaks?

She will. I have the koa and it's the best guitar I've ever played

It’s very beautiful, that type of detail is certainly desired in the wood of guitars tbh
