NOTE: Below is the description from original listing.

“Just like the vibrant and eclectic South Congress district of Austin, Texas that inspired its name, the Collings SoCo 16 LC brings its distinctive aesthetic and sonic voice to the tradition of classic semi-hollow electric guitars. Crafted with the best vintage examples of semi-hollow tone in mind, the SoCo 16 LC utilizes a specially-developed combination of wood laminates for the top, back, and sides that are crafted in-house to create a focused and versatile instrument. Featuring a solid maple center-block and slightly larger body dimensions than its other SoCo siblings, the 16 LC speaks with a full-bodied authority that confidently delivers everything from warm punchy jazz to sparkling airy leads.” – From the Collings Website

It’s no secret that we adore Collings Guitars and consider them to be amongst the best being made today. Their SoCo Deluxe stands as one of their premium electric guitar models and this custom spec’d example is testament to their build quality. With its tasteful blonde finish, its appearance is perhaps a bit more understated but no less elegant with its Ivoroid-bound top, back, neck, and headstock, punctuated with the pearloid headstock inlay. The guitar is equipped with Lollar Imperial pickups, while its thinner body helps it to resist feedback. Though its semi-hollowbody construction would suggest that this guitar is built for jazz, it’s versatile enough to cover rock, blues, R&B, and more!

This guitar is in remarkably pristine shape with veritably no visual points of contention. There does exist the most minor examples of playwear (most notably very light pickguard scuffing). As such we would classify this guitar as being in EXCEPTIONALLY FINE to NEAR MINT condition.
