2018 Collings 290DC 1959 in Faded Crimson Nitro. A stunning example of this classic model, the build quality is superb. Custom ordered with a Lollar Gold Foil pickup in the neck position and Dog Ear Lollar P-90 in the bridge, a great comb offering a wide range of vintage inspired tones. Highly resonant Honduran Mahogany body and neck with long tenon, 24 7/8" scale length, Rosewood fingerboard with 12" radius and adjustable Schaller wrapover bridge. In excellent condition, just a couple of tiny marks. A very classy, well built alternative to the 'usual' doublecuts. Nice and light at 7lb 4oz. With original hard case and tags etc.
