The Collings CJ is their take on a slope-shouldered jumbo, delivering the power and presence of a dreadnought with a more controlled and musical low end. This Sitka spruce and Honduran mahogany build offers a focused, punchy response with strong fundamentals and a dry, articulate character that sits exceptionally well in a mix. It’s a versatile platform that handles everything from aggressive strumming to rootsy fingerstyle, with the kind of clarity and balance that Collings is known for.

Highlights
  • Sitka spruce top with Honduran mahogany back and sides for a warm, punchy, and focused tonal profile
  • CJ slope-shoulder body shape for powerful projection with a controlled, percussive low end
  • Pre-war scalloped X-bracing for enhanced responsiveness and dynamic range
  • Ebony fingerboard and bridge with premium Collings build quality throughout
  • Waverly tuners and high-gloss nitro finish for vintage-inspired feel and long-term reliability
