Sound Pure's Take
Now -this- is why you get a custom guitar. I've never played anything quite like this and I don't want to stop! The original owner made a good amount of specific design requests and from cosmetics to construction, they're all absolutely spot on. It would seem that they were after the perfect medium between OO-style playability and OM-style presence and complexity--nailed it! I can't recall a guitar that manages to be so full and rich and yet so focused and downright easy to play. Worried about the loss of presence and fullness that comes with a short scale? The combination of the deep body and rosewood extends the dynamic range, affording sonorous, miles-deep bass and full, singing treble ranges. The mid-range scoop from the rosewood goes just far enough to balance the guitar's voice, while the German top lends a subtle, warm coloration that finds a sweet spot between Adirondack's fierce bite and Engelmann's delicate, airy demeanor. The best part? Strike a chord and you'll hear right away how well this guitar has aged over the past few years since being made in 2012--the evenly settled high gloss nitro lacquer will attest to that, too! The K&K pickup and full adjustable truss rod mean this guitar's ready for a long life of song--now it just needs someone to sing with!

Also in this recording Collings C10-35 SB Sitka/Mahogany Acoustic Guitar #25132
In this video, Sound Pure acoustic guitar expert Robinson Earle tests out the Collings C10-35 SB Acoustic #25132, which features a sitka spruce top and mahogany back and sides.
Based on guitars first introduced around the same time as the OM, The Collings C10 is a leaner alternative, with the narrow waist and small upper bout resulting in a precise, focused response. the C10 is perhaps the easiest for electric guitarists to adapt to, thanks in part to the more rounded neck profile. The small oval neck heel is ideally suited to the optional cutaway, which allows unrestricted access to the upper frets. This guitar is available for SoundPure's Try-Before-You-Buy Program, so if you want to hear how it sounds in your hands shoot us an email at Acoustics@SoundPure.com or call us anytime at 919.682.5552.

From Collings Guitars
Based on guitars first introduced around the same time as the OM, the Collings C10 is a leaner alternative, with the narrow waist and small upper bout resulting in a precise, focused response. Of all our acoustic models, the C10 is perhaps the easiest for electric guitarists to adapt to, thanks in part to the more rounded neck profile. The small oval neck heel is ideally suited to the optional cutaway, which allows unrestricted access to the upper frets. With its unique shape and asymmetrical headstock's lines echoed in the curvilinear pickguard, C10 models offer a welcome alternative for those who find that most small acoustic guitars look too much alike.
