Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

When I think "Collings", the first thing that comes to mind is "perfection". This is no exception to that. 

From every detail on the finish, to the frets, all the way to the overall build itself, there is utter perfection. Tonally, this guitar is reminiscent of your favorite singlecut, but with a very open, natural tone to it. Whatever you put into the guitar, you'll be rewarded with sweet, sweet tone.

SP Luthier Notes: The guitar received a setup and is playing just right!
