About this listing
Some guitars walk into the room and immediately demand a standing ovation. This one simply clears its throat... and every Martin, Gibson, and Taylor within earshot suddenly starts checking its intonation.If you've never experienced a Bill Collings-built all-mahogany 12-fret, prepare yourself. This isn't the guitar that shouts the loudest—it's the one that quietly reminds you why you fell in love with acoustic guitars in the first place. Warm, woody, unbelievably articulate, and responsive enough to reveal every ounce of your technique... or your complete lack thereof. It's wonderfully honest like that.The compact parlor-sized body makes it incredibly comfortable to play, while the 12-fret neck joint moves the bridge into the sweet spot of the top, producing a richness and fullness that seems impossible from a guitar this size. Add in the gorgeous slotted headstock, and you've got one of the most elegant acoustic designs ever built.This is one of those guitars that doesn't need fancy abalone, exotic bindings, or enough pearl to signal airplanes. It simply lets impeccable craftsmanship and phenomenal tone do all the talking.SpecsYear: 2008Make: CollingsModel: 001 MHBody Style: 12-Fret ParlorFinish: Natural Gloss NitrocelluloseTop: Solid Honduran MahoganyBack & Sides: Solid Honduran MahoganyNeck: Honduran MahoganyFingerboard: EbonyBridge: Ebony Pyramid BridgeHeadstock: Slotted Headstock with Ebony OverlayScale Length: 24 7/8"Nut Width: 1 13/16"Neck Profile: .911" At The 1st Fret / .943" At The 9th FretRosette: Multi-RingBinding: IvoroidTuners: Nickel Open-Back Waverly TunersSaddle: BoneNut: BonePick-Guard: Tortoise ShellSerial #: 15678ConditionBorn in 2008, this Collings has clearly been loved and respected throughout its life.
