Condition: Used, Excellent

SP Luthier Notes: Polished Frets & Fingerboard, Performed Light Dress & Minor Setup

From Collings Guitars

Our Traditional Series or "T-Series” guitars represent an exciting vintage-inspired tonal variation on the distinctive Collings sound, designed and crafted to showcase the most desirable characteristics present in coveted pre-war instruments. Bracing and tone woods 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.
