Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

We love that P90 bad attitude dirty tone but you won't believe the clean tones in this 290 DC. Great articulation, clarity, and a singing solo tone! 

SP Luthier Notes: Fret dress and setup

From Collings Guitars

Some things are simply better in pairs. With a double-cutaway mahogany body and dual hand-wound P90 pickups from Jason Lollar, the 290 DC® offers unhindered access to the upper frets and a wide range of tonal possibilities. From pristine clean tones with rich harmonic complexity to hard-hitting classic rock sounds, there are few bases the 290 DC® cannot cover. To further the guitar's vintage-inspired tone and aesthetic, we've made available our own custom wraparound tailpiece (optional) that's been designed to deliver unsurpassed dynamic range and improved intonation up the neck.
