Collings

By virtue of Collings' impeccable craftsmanship, everything about this instrument is distilled to a bare-bones, no-nonsense perfection. Like a study in simplicity, its clean, sturdy appearance expresses the essence of refined utility.  Its straightforward looks alone leave no doubt that this guitar was made for one purpose - to be put to use for some serious music making, and it delivers.

In terms of performance, the combination of playability and sound is superb. The clean, beautifully shaped body bevels comfortably balance the guitar with a player's body, and the peerless fretwork and smoothly curved neck heel provide for smooth, almost effortless playing over the entire reach of the fingerboard.  At the same time, the guitar's voice is marked by a wide expressive range that is equally inspiring.  Even the natural acoustic sound of this instrument is surprisingly satisfying which is due no doubt to Collings’ selective choice and use of only the most resonate tonewoods.  And with this instrument's natural responsiveness coupled to just two Lollar Imperial Standard Wind Humbuckers, and a select amplifier, one can produce sounds of such tonal diversity that every music genre defined by the electric guitar is within reach - from warm mellow jazz to edgy, gutbucket grinds.

 Cosmetic Condition:

This guitar is remarkably clean for a used piece.  It only has a two points to note.  One being light scuffing to the pickguard that would be consistent with very light playwear, and the other being some minor finish chipping of the clear coat around the backplate.  As such, we would classify this guitar as being in EXCELLENT CONDITION
