Named for the scenic 290 highway that winds past the Collings shop though the Texas Hill Country, the 290 is a modern day tribute to the original working man's rock'n roll guitar. A solid mahogany body and neck are complimented by two Lollar Soap Bar P90 pickups for a tone that shows off the amazing harmonic range and dynamics of this often underrated configuration.
This guitar is in pristine condition, includes original documentation and ships in its original hard shell case. Playability is phenomenal with a looks and sound to match! Absolutely stunning grain brought out by the unique Dog Hair finish. Only blemish to mention are your typical pick marks on pick guard from mild use. Contact us with any questions or offers!
