There's something to be said about when the greatest guitar makers on the planet puts all of their resources into an instrument, and this is the example that we are presented with when it comes to the 470 JL. This guitar extends a limb beyond the jazz roots of its namesake artist, and plugged in can go anywhere from smooth jazz to face melting fuzz (something a few of us here at SoundPure have tried...). The weight and feel of the guitar are nothing short of incredible, and the aesthetic appeal is flawless and luxurious. Every one of these we've gotten has been incredible, and this one is no exception. This will not last long here, so get it before it's gone!

The success of the Collings OM1 JL combined with Julian Lage’s love of electric guitars meant a second Collings-Julian collaboration was inevitable. But following such a highly praised signature model with yet another meant leaving nothing on the table. From its organic beginnings, the process envisioned by both parties was something designed and built from the sound up.

The Collings 470 JL is the result of years-long conversations, engineering, testing, tweaking, playing, and listening. And then doing it all over again until it was right. From first sketches through plugging in the final prototypes, every aspect of this model inside and out is the result of a unique approach, technique, and style - both from the builder’s and player’s point of view - culminating in a one-of-a-kind electric guitar experience.

In collaboration with our friend Julian Lage, we proudly present the Collings 470 JL.
