If I had to choose one acoustic guitar, it would be a 14-fret 00 … plenty of volume and low end, but small enough to be comfortable on the couch and on the stage. This is Collings’ latest offering. Beautiful build with Collings’ Traditional package, including an ultra thin nitro finish, short scale, with a 1 3/4 bone nut, pre-war scalloped X bracing, traditional carve neck, ebony fretboard and bridge. So good. The short scale makes it a delight to play. Hope it stays around a while, I will miss it when it’s gone. Lifetime warranty and hardshell case. Serial # 30951

ThisTraditional Series variation represents our vintage-inspired approach to voicing and construction, which brings out a strong fundamental tonality and dry articulation with warmer high-end response.
