Simple. Black. Eloquent. Pure and Raw. A tribute to the original rock n’ roll guitar, this Collings 290 Aged in Jet Black is constructed with a solid Honduran mahogany body and neck, rosewood fingerboard, Schaller wraparound bridge, 50s style wiring, and a pair of incredible ThroBak P90 pickups, among other features. PLEK machine leveling ensures amazing and consistent rockin'!

Sometimes you just need the pure basics - though with Collings it never feels basic, it feels honed, superbly crafted, expertly fitted.

The basics - done best.
