(NEW) Our adventures with redwood and Collings continue! Redwood has the warmth and depth of good cedar, but the strength and headroom of spruce. It is a surprisingly versatile wood, and the combinations we're hearing from Collings are dinstinctive guitars, indeed. For this one, we asked for a plain redwood top (not streaky sinker style) and some knockout, tight-flamed figured mahogany for the back and sides. They compliment each other perfectly, both sonically and visually.
This guitar has a 1 3/4" nut, standard long 25 1/2" scale, 2 3/16" string spacing at the saddle, and Collings original mod V neck profile. The appointments are standard 1 series, with tortoise body binding, 3-ring rosette and b/w/b top purfling. The compound radius ebony fingerboard has dot inlays, and the bridge/pins are ebony as well. Nickel Waverly tuners on the peghead.
When spruce is making you feel like you've "been there, done that" we can make a cast that your next Collings should be redwood! Includes hard case.
