Sound Pure's Take

Immerse yourself in the exceptional sound of this Collings OM2HT, a testament to world-class craftsmanship. The vibrant combination of a Sitka spruce top and rich East Indian rosewood back and sides offers a tonal palette that is both powerful and nuanced, perfect for fingerstyle players and strummers alike. This instrument isn’t just a guitar; it’s a personal investment in unparalleled playability and tone. Featuring a classic Honduran mahogany neck and a stunning ebony fingerboard adorned with diamond and square inlays, this guitar feels as good as it sounds. The attention to detail, from the tasteful herringbone purfling to the quality Waverly tuners, ensures a rock-solid, reliable instrument. With its high gloss finish and custom pre-war scalloped X-brace, this Collings delivers a deeply resonant and responsive voice, ready for any musical journey.

From Collings Guitars

Our Traditional Series or “T” guitars represent an exciting vintage-inspired variation on the distinctive Collings sound, designed and crafted to showcase the most desirable characteristics of coveted pre-war instruments. Bracing and tonewoods are adjusted for weight and thickness to create a voicing characterized by warm, rounded highs and a present low midrange, while retaining a quick attack and strong projection.

Our 2-style (OM2H T) features East Indian rosewood back and sides with ivoroid body binding and butt wedge, small brown herringbone top purfling, a “zipper” backstrip, diamonds and squares fingerboard inlays, and a more intricate 2-style rosette.
