Sound Pure's Take

The Collings I-30 LC in Iced Tea Sunburst is a stunning fusion of classic hollow-body charm and Collings’ trademark precision. Built with a fully hollow maple laminate body and parallel trestle bracing, it delivers that lively, resonant punch players crave — full of air, warmth, and vintage-style bite. The Lollar Dog Ear P90 pickups, wired in true ’50s style, capture everything from shimmering cleans to raw, soulful grit with effortless clarity. Honduran mahogany lends the neck a luxurious feel, while the rosewood fingerboard with mother-of-pearl inlays ensures smooth playability and timeless beauty. Every curve and component, from the nickel-plated Kluson bridge to the Collings trapeze tailpiece, reflects a balance of elegance and endurance.

From Collings Guitars

Our goal for the I-30 LC was to take the concept of a double cutaway, fully-hollow, P90-equipped guitar and refine it to the extent that it offers something truly new for today’s players. The result is one of the most acoustically responsive and versatile electric guitars we have ever offered.

The lightweight “trestle-braced” body of the I-30 LC has been developed through extensive R&D and is the distillation of knowledge gleaned from our popular I-35 LC and Statesman LC. The trestle brace design directly couples the neck and tail block, creating exceptional strength and acoustical energy transference, while also allowing for a lightness and responsiveness that is both a tactile and musical joy to experience.

Playing the I-30 LC, you can easily feel the acoustic energy travel through the symmetric arches and re-curves of the top and back. These plates have been custom laminated and voiced for a tonality that is acoustic guitar-like in its resonance and dynamic response, but focused and feedback resistant enough to be utilized in jazz, blues, rock n’ roll, and other styles. Our new custom-designed trapeze tailpiece provides just the right amount of “give” for a relaxed string feel and effortless playability.

Lollar Dogear P90s are perfectly matched to the instrument’s acoustic response and offer a wide palette of tones from rich jazzy warmth to 1960’s British Invasion-style chime. Drawing its inspiration from both classic electric designs and our own previous models, the I-30 LC is an exciting step forward and an intriguing Collings sound.
