Yep, a real nice size between an OO and OOO. Some of that same nice size aspect of the GS Mini but more substantial and to my mind balanced. The GS Minis I've tried are loud but thin and to my mind a bit shrill. If I were focused on the "big travel" relatively inexpensive guitar, I think I'd go with one of the Martin Jrs, I had the dread in all sapele and it was easy to play (once set up correctly) and have played some spruce top Jr Dreads and the OOO Jr and they sound better than the Taylor but still nowhere near the GTs, even the urban ash ones and certainly not the Walnut back and sides ones or the fancier ones like the 811e
