Collings 001-T

This. This cannon. This Collings 001-T is the bee’s knees, the cat’s meow, the… You get it… It is a Collings after all…

Sitka spruce top, Honduran Mahogany back and sides, ebony board and bridge – it’s ‘traditional’ the way it’s s’posed to be. And built by master craftsmen and luthiers. It is a forever instrument – and it looks and sounds it. And playability – goodness gracious – perfection!

A little spiel from Collings, it’s a good spiel:

The new Traditional Series variations of our classic 12-fret 00 take a vintage-inspired approach to voicing and construction designed to produce a strong fundamental response and open feel, with rounder highs and less overtone complexity compared to the signature Collings sound. The combination of an open slotted peghead, shorter 24 7/8″ scale length, and pyramid bridge paired with our ultra-thin nitrocellulose lacquer finish and newly redesigned neck support make for a woody and articulate voice that exemplifies everything we love about the T-Series. With a longer upper bout than its 14-fret counterpart, the 00 offers rich, balanced tone with excellent note separation, making it a fine choice for fingerstyle guitarists, singer-songwriters, or anyone else looking for a balance of comfort, volume, and responsiveness.
