Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent/Mint

This 000 from Collings is in rarely seen condition for a used guitar and is ready to be played! An incredibly sensitive Engelmann Spruce top will react wonderfully to light playing with fingers and has a ton of dynamic range as your attack increases. This guitar feels dependable and will reward clean playing with a pick or your fingers and access to the higher frets is very comfortable thanks to the cutaway. If you're looking for a balanced guitar with a strong fundamental and great overall range in a small package this is absolutely worth considering!

Collings 0001E Cut #16236 Acoustic Guitar (Used) Quick n' Dirty

In this video, Sound Pure Acoustic Specialist Sam Kelly takes the Collings 0001E Cut #16236 Acoustic for a spin.

From Collings Guitars

The 12-fret 000 has the same general appearance as the Collings 00, but in a larger size with longer string scale. Although it's the same width and depth as the OM, the longer body typically produces more bass and overall volume. This makes the Collings 000 ideal for string-band purists or any guitarist who wants a maximum of power from an instrument of comfortable size with an elegant, old-time appearance. Along with the usual options in woods, binding, and inlay, it is also available with a graceful cutaway.
