Harness the full tonal potential of this sensational Collings OM1A! With a unique blend of a warm Honduran mahogany body and a vibrant Adirondack spruce top, this traditional series beauty is a true sonic standout. Its impeccable sound is a testament to its masterful construction, featuring a custom wood rosette, elegant tortoise binding, and a pre-war scalloped X-brace for exceptional resonance. It's more than a guitar; it’s an investment, a reliable and road-ready instrument that will undoubtedly inspire. Rest assured, this specific instrument has been expertly maintained by a professional luthier, with leveled and polished frets and a fully adjusted truss rod, so you can play with complete confidence.

OM' stands for "Orchestra Model," but 80 years after this body shape was first designed it has become the most popular 14-fret model with fingerstyle guitar soloists who choose to play on steel strings. Yet flatpickers also find it appealing, and when the graceful cutaway is added these OMs are often used by lead players who routinely explore all 20 frets much as they would on an electric guitar. The compact shape makes the Collings OM equally easy to handle onstage or when sitting on the couch, and the relatively shallow body (barely over 4 inches deep) results in balanced tone and an immediate response.
