I loved it when Collings introduced the WL-14 Waterloo mahogany guitar, and now here is the WL-14 Scissortail in maple. Drawing its name from the Scissor-tailed Flycatcher — a bird species common to the Central Texas Hill Country — the WL-14 Scissortail is a special edition WL-14 that pays homage to the "Oriole" guitars produced [...]
Here's an as-new Collings 360 LT M guitar in a special order mermaid blue finish, ash body, curly maple neck, tortoise pickguard, Lollar P90s and the outstanding Mastery offset vibrato and bridge. This guitar was owned for about a week and traded for a high-end acoustic. I have a black pickguard if you prefer it to the tortoise [...]
I’ve been lucky enough to play some very fine electric guitars, but in my mind there isn’t a finer semi-hollow guitar out there than the Collings I-35. The I-35 LC uses high quality laminate construction to faithfully reproduce the vintage tone of the original Gibsons. An outstanding guitar, with figured top and back, and mahogany [...]
I've been waiting for these guitars to start arriving, and it was worth it. Here's a new Collings 360 LT M guitar in jet black, alder body, curly maple neck, tortoise pickguard, Lollar P90s and the outstanding Mastery offset vibrato and bridge. As Collings says: "Our versatile 360 offset body shape has lent itself to [...]
Collings makes an outstanding dread, and the D2H is always one of their top sellers. Typical Collings projection and big sound, with a rock-solid build, crisp highs and powerful lows. This example is customized with a handsome Western Shade finish on the top, and a 1 3/4 nut. East Indian rosewood back and sides, select [...]
I have a particular love for maple bodied guitars; there is something about the clear treble and punch that is perfect for my style. This Collings SJ (small jumbo) has plenty of power, bass and volume with a great midrange that makes it ideal for strumming or finger picking, and it sounds great with a [...]
Here is a left-handed Waterloo by Collings WL-14, X-braced, black finish, with the optional "moderate" neck carve -- which is still a fairly beefy neck. Collings quality with minimalist aesthetics, harkening back to vintage tone of the original Kalamazoo guitars. The WL-14 is the flagship model of the Waterloo guitar line and the inspiration that started [...]
I love small bodied acoustics, and this is one of my favorites. This C10 Custom from Collings offers great tone in a small, comfortable package. Crisp trebles, substantial lows, and beautifully balanced. A great blues guitar, strumming guitar, and equally responsive to some dynamic finger picking, thanks to its narrow waist and small upper bout [...]
Great opportunity to grab a barely used C10-35 at a significant savings. The guitar looks brand new aside a couple small dings in the top, too small to photograph. Collings’ latest and limited edition take on the venerable C10 shares the appointments of the popular CJ-35, giving you specially selected ultra-lightweight tonewoods, non-scalloped Adirondack bracing with [...]
Briefly owned and gently used, this D1A is difficult to tell from a brand new guitar. Someone's getting a deal. Collings builds monster dreads, and their venerable D1 paired with an Adirondack top has always been at the top of my list. This guitar is customized with a 1.75 nut. Handsome and understated tortoise binding [...]
