Collings C10 Deluxe Small Body Natural Top Acoustic Guitar

$5,995.00 $6,550.00

COLLINGS C10 SMALL BODY NATURAL TOP

Based on guitars first introduced around the same time as the OM, the Collings C10 is a leaner alternative, with the narrow waist and small upper bout resulting in a precise, focused response. Of all our acoustic models, the C10 is perhaps the easiest for electric guitarists to adapt to, thanks in part to the more rounded neck profile. The small oval neck heel is ideally suited to the optional cutaway, which allows unrestricted access to the upper frets. With its unique shape and asymmetrical headstock's lines echoed in the curvilinear pickguard, C10 models offer a welcome alternative for those who find that most small acoustic guitars look too much alike. This model comes with the classic Spruce/Rosewood timber combination, Pre-war scalloped bracing, high gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish, ebony fingerboard with ebony straight-style bridge and mother of pearl dot fingerboard inlays, and Nickel schaller mini-tuners with 1.14 ratio. This fine instrument comes with a Collings deluxe hardshell case by TKL.

Collings D1M Custom Mahogany Top Acoustic Guitar

$5,399.00 $5,999.00

COLLINGS D1M CUSTOM MAHOGANY TOP

The square-shouldered 14-fret dreadnought is the most popular steel-string acoustic guitar body shape in the world. While Collings is certainly not the only company to build them, they bring a new tonal clarity to the depth and warmth usually associated with such a large, deep-bodied guitar. Although its bass response makes the dreadnought ideal for vocal accompaniment, Collings versions are also often employed by bluegrass flatpickers who must compete with inherently louder instruments such as banjos and fiddles.

This custom-built model replaces the usual Sitka spruce top with fine Honduran Mahogany, with Honduran Mahogany back and sides, pre-war scalloped Sitka Spruce bracing, high-gloss ultra-thin Nitrocellulose lacquer finish, ebony fingerboard with ebony belly-style bridge and mother of pearl dot fingerboard inlays, and Nickel Waverly tuners. Simply one of the finest dreadnoughts that we have ever had in the store. Complete with a Collings hardshell case by TKL.

Collings OM2H Orchestral Model Acoustic Guitar

$6,399.00 $7,995.00

COLLINGS OM2H ORCHESTRAL MODEL

'OM' stands for "Orchestra Model," but 80 years after this body shape was first designed it has become the most popular 14-fret model with fingerstyle guitar soloists who choose to play on steel strings. Yet flatpickers also find it appealing, and when the graceful cutaway is added these OMs are often used by lead players who routinely explore all 20 frets much as they would on an electric guitar. The compact shape makes the Collings OM equally easy to handle onstage or when sitting on the couch, and the relatively shallow body (barely over 4 inches deep) results in balanced tone and an immediate response. This model comes with the classic Spruce/Rosewood timber combination, Pre-war scalloped bracing, High gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish, ebony fingerboard with ebony belly-style bridge with mother of pearl diamond and square fingerboard inlays, and Nickel Waverly tuners with 16:1 ratio. This fine instrument comes with a Collings deluxe hardshell case by TKL.

Collings SJ Southern Jumbo Acoustic Guitar

$7,895.00 $8,250.00

COLLINGS SJ SOUTHERN JUMBO

The SJ is our version of what is commonly called a small Jumbo. Although the 16 inch lower bout is slightly wider than a dreadnought, and the sides almost as deep, the tight curve at the waist creates in a very different sound chamber. SJs, especially examples in maple, typically have a more pronounced midrange response when compared to a dreadnought, making them ideal candidates for a rounded cutaway. Players looking for the bass and overall volume of a large guitar, but with lots of treble clarity and midrange crunch, often find just what they need in the curvaceous SJ. This model comes with a stunning Spruce/European maple timber combination, pre-war scalloped bracing, high gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish, ebony fingerboard with ebony SJ style bridge and mother of pearl Modern Diamond fretboard inlays, and Gold Schaller mini-tuners with 1:14 ratio This fine instrument comes with a Collings deluxe hardshell case by TKL.

Collings Waterloo 'Jumbo King' WL-JK Sunburst X-Brace Acoustic Guitar

$3,299.00

Collings Waterloo 'Jumbo King' WL-JK Sunburst X-Brace Acoustic Guitar

Founded by master luthier Bill Collings, the Waterloo guitar line is a look back in time to when there was a genuine need for soulful tone that could be coaxed from simple instruments. The blues, country, and folk music played on these instruments was made in heartfelt response to the hard times of the depression era. It was music heard in work camps and barn dances, kitchens and honky-tonks, porches, street corners and churches. These musical styles became the roots of popular American music for decades to come. The Waterloo brand is all about capturing the voice and spirit of the very best depression era guitars in well-made and very playable instruments.

Full-bodied in both tone and stature, the aptly nicknamed "Jumbo King” is the largest size offering in the Waterloo line and a modern day tribute to jumbo-sized guitars of the early 1940s. Originally manufactured by Regal for the mail-order enterprise Montgomery Ward, this slope-shoulder body size was designed to provide performers of the era with enough volume and power for professional radio work. The WL-JK accomplishes this and more by employing a full five-inch body depth and a slightly narrow waist to enhance both the bass and treble response.

The Jumbo King combines a solid spruce, vintage-style sunburst finished top with X-bracing, a solid mahogany back and sides, herringbone rosette, an ebony bridge with ebony pins and bone saddle, and a solid mahogany neck with Indian rosewood fretboard. Complete with vintage-inspired Waterloo hardshell case.

Collings Waterloo Series WL-14 Mahogany X-Brace Acoustic Guitar

There’s nothing quite like the sound of an all mahogany guitar. With its warm yet crisp tone and even note articulation, mahogany has been a go-to tone wood for country, blues and folk guitarists throughout the last century.

The new WL-14 Mahogany harkens back to the “Dust Bowl” era of simple and affordable instruments that reflected the elemental need for music in tough and trying times. Often accompanied by only boot stomps, the instruments that inspired the WL-14 needed to be punchy and full, but compact and easy to travel with. The comfortable and lightweight WL-14 is designed with these qualities to be a musical companion in just about any circumstance, and brings the soulful and unadorned character of 1920s and 30s instruments forward to today’s musicians. Built by hand with love and care, each Waterloo is made of all solid tone woods one at a time in Austin, Texas.

Hardshell TKL case included.
