Collings CJ Slope Shoulder (2005) – Sitka / Rosewood – Mint Condition – Signed by Bill Collings.

For sale stunning 2005 Collings CJ (Collings Jumbo), an exceptional American boutique luthiery instrument offering outstanding acoustic performance, deep tone, projection, and attack typical of the extraordinary craftsmanship from Austin, Texas.

The guitar has been kept with great care and is in excellent overall condition regarding playability and structure: perfect fretboard, straight neck, solid bridge, and optimal action.

As an instrument over 20 years old with an ultra-thin nitrocellulose finish, it shows the natural and classic light mark in the lacquer along the top seam behind the bridge (center seam finish checking), visible only when held up to the light. This is purely a superficial finish settling line (wood is intact and stable), very common on thin, resonant vintage-style finishes, which does not affect the structural integrity, extraordinary sound, or value of the instrument in any way.
