Collings Guitars and Mandolins

Collings Guitars and Mandolins We featured this guitar several weeks ago while it was still in the build process. It was impressive in raw wood, but the depth of the quilt really comes alive with a high gloss finish.

Breath taking! Is that curly maple under that high gloss finish? I'm still looking at some "Les Paulish" styles.

This established his national ... Read Morereputation. Sources: The Illustrated Directory of Guitars, ed. Ray Bonds & Nick Freeth, 2006. On a personal note, I have own Martins, Taylors, Santa Cruz, Fender, Gibson, Guild but nothing compares to Collings!
