Collings I-35 LC - Brock Burst #262689

The Collings I-35 LC in Brock Burst is a refined semi-hollow electric guitar that brings together traditional craftsmanship, elegant appointments, and a beautifully balanced voice. Its semi-hollow maple laminate body is built around a maple and spruce center block, with unbound F-holes and a high-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish that allows the Brock Burst to reveal depth and character across the instrument's carved silhouette. Non-grained ivoroid binding outlines both the body and rosewood fingerboard, while the black/cream/black pickguard and matching truss rod cover add a subtle vintage accent. At 7 lbs 0 oz, it offers a substantial yet comfortable presence in the hands.

The neck is crafted from Honduran mahogany and joined to the body with an extra-long mortise and tenon joint, providing a strong foundation for sustain and resonance. Its rosewood fingerboard features 5 mm non-tapered MOP long dots and a comfortable 12 inch radius, finished with medium 18% nickel-silver frets and a 1 11/16 inch nut. The ebony peghead veneer carries the MOP Collings logo, complemented by a distinctive Haircut peghead profile and nickel Gotoh tuners bearing the Collings logo. Together, these details create an instrument that feels purposeful and meticulously finished from headstock to bridge.

At the heart of the I-35 LC are a pair of Lollar Low Wind Imperial Humbuckers, delivering a clear, articulate character with warmth, harmonic detail, and plenty of dynamic response. CTS 500K pots and Jupiter Vintage Yellow capacitors are paired with 50s-style wiring to preserve the guitar's natural tonal range and allow subtle changes in the volume and tone controls to become part of the performance. Amber or black top-hat knobs and cream or black pickup rings complete the understated vintage aesthetic, while the Kluson ABR-1 bridge, nickel-plated zinc construction with retaining wire, and Kluson stop tailpiece with steel studs provide a classic foundation for precise, dependable performance.

The Collings I-35 LC is completed with a Deluxe hardshell case and strung with D'Addario NYXL1149 strings in .011 to .049 gauges. Its 24 7/8 inch scale length contributes to a comfortable playing feel, while the combination of maple, spruce, Honduran mahogany, rosewood, Lollar pickups, and nitrocellulose lacquer gives the instrument a voice that can move effortlessly from intimate and nuanced to rich and powerful. Every element feels considered, from the MOP details and ebony peghead veneer to the vintage-inspired electronics and traditional Kluson hardware, creating a semi-hollow guitar with a timeless soul and unmistakable Collings character.
