The Collings OM1JL is the result of Bill Collings' tireless efforts to provide guitar phenom, Julian Lage, with a touring guitar that would match his 1939 Martin 000-18 in tone, neck feel and vibe while maintaining the rugged stability that professional players demand of their Collings instruments.

Built with Collings' "Traditional" construction specs, the OM1JL features Mahogany back and sides, a Spruce top, extra-thin satin nitrocellulose lacquer finish, old-style peghead inlay and a custom neck blueprinted from Julian's aforementioned '39 000-18.

Every instrument we ship is inspected and set up by our in-house guitar techs before it leaves the shop.
