Beautiful Collings I-30 LC in faded cherry:

Gorgeous fully hollow electric w/ parallel trestle braces. Stunning to both play and behold


  • Short Scale 24 7/8"
  • 1 11/16 Nut


The neck carve is incredible as all Collings seem to be. As per Collings's craftmenship, the build quality is the standard by which others are judged.

In excellent condition, zero dents. One small nick on the back of the headstock (pictured), and some v light scuffs/marks in the finish on neck and body. Kept in a smoke and pet free home.

There is some very light swirling to the pickguard and in the finish if held under bright light at odd angles, and a tiny amount of nautral checking in the finish (simply reflecting Collings very thin nitro finish).


Frets are excellent, and the action and intonation are spot on.


Includes the Collings Paper document and original case.


Also listed on other forums.


Local pickup (London) preferred.


Let me know if you have any questions or want more info (for sale only: no trades).
