Sound Pure's Take
Love the Lollar P90s !!!
We love that P90 bad attitude dirty tone but you won't believe the clean tones in this 290.
Great articulation, clarity, and a singing solo tone !!!
From Collings Guitars
Named for the scenic 290 highway that winds past the Collings shop though the Texas Hill Country, the 290 is a modern day tribute to the original working man's rock'n roll guitar. A solid mahogany body and neck are complimented by two Lollar Soap Bar P90 pickups for a tone that shows off the amazing harmonic range and dynamics of this often underrated configuration.
