Sound Pure's Take

A blonde bombshell!  As clear and powerful as it is comfortable, the punch and attack this guitar offers will make any Roots music guitarist feel 10 feet tall.  The long scale length on this one affords articulation and sustain while also giving flatpickers a chance to enjoy the lightning fast response and balanced compression.  If it's what works for you, a slightly wider nut width (1 13/16") can't be beat for spacious, easy board traversal.  Gotta mention the look, too--the flame in the neck and detail in the headstock are just a couple features that will put a smile on anybody's face.  10/10!

Collings 0002H Maple/Adirondack Acoustic #19796 - Used—Quick 'n' Dirty

In this video, Sound Pure guitar specialist Barrett Brooks tests a Collings 0002H Maple/Adirondack acoustic guitar.

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.
