AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
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.
