Collings OM1 Custom 'Black Top / Doghair Finish' Acoustic Guitar

The Collings OM1 Custom 'Black Top / Doghair Finish' Acoustic Guitar showcases the exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail that is synonymous with Collings guitars. This Orchestra Model (OM) guitar is handcrafted in the Collings workshop in Austin, Texas, continuing the legacy of the late Bill Collings.

The OM1 is renowned for its outstanding sound and is a prime example of Collings' mastery of mahogany guitars. It delivers a crisp attack, strong note fundamental, sweet midrange, and exquisite overtone detail. The guitar's mahogany construction contributes to its distinct Collings sound and tonal characteristics.

In addition to its exceptional sound, this custom-ordered OM1 boasts a stunning aesthetic. It features a gloss Piano Black finish on the soundboard and Collings' unique 'Doghair Finish' on the back and sides. The instrument is adorned with an ivoroid pickguard and a 2-style rosette, adding to its visual appeal. This one-of-a-kind guitar is truly a statement piece.

The Collings OM1 Custom comes complete with a Collings hardshell case, ensuring its protection during transport and storage.

We endeavour to show the actual instrument in stock whenever possible, but the guitar in stock may differ slightly from the one shown on our website. Materials used can look different from guitar to guitar, including timber grain and colour, parts colours and finishing. If an instrument is a one-of-a-kind or preowned guitar, the picture will always be of the actual guitar in stock, but production models may have slight variations to the picture shown.

If you're after a particular look, feel free to email us at info@acousticcentre.com.au or send us a message through our chat service to request photos of the actual guitar in stock. We are more than happy to send through pictures of all in-stock guitars, to make your choice easier.
