ON CONSIGNMENT, NO TRADE OFFERS PLEASE!
(USED) It is no secret that mandolin production is very slow at Collings these days, so we're more than happy any time we are able to offer one on consignment. This MFO is only a few years old, but has already developed into a very assertive sounding instrument, plenty of power and clarity but not harsh or sterile in the least.
Adirondack spruce top, flamed maple back and sides with smooth satin finish throughout. As an oval hole model, it has the wider 1 3/16" nut width, and string spacing at the ebony saddle measures 1 9/16". The compound radius ebony fingerboard has pearl dot inlays. The tailpiece is Collings' design in polished nickel. The tuners are Gotoh with ebony buttons.
Condition is great with no significant cosmetic or structural issues. There is a bit of shine in the "pinky post" area near the E string course, between the sound hole and the bridge. There is only the faintest hint of fret wear under the unwound strings. Includes original TKL hard case.
Collings mandos are getting more and more rare, but you can always count on AMW to find one for you!
