New to the Collings line, the Collings 001A Traditional Satin is a 14-fret that is small in size, but mighty in voice and tonality. The satin finished Adirondack Spruce top and Honduran Mahogany back and sides are a classic pairing that creates an instrument with a strong fundamental tonality and dry articulation. The solid, handpicked and hand voiced tonewoods, and ultra thin satin finish provide added nuance and responsiveness, with a warm high-end, and present low mids. The custom wood rosette and purfling, paired with its 1-style backstrip and tortoise body binding, give this guitar a humble, yet classy look. With its mid sized body and distinctive voice, the Collings 001A Traditional Satin is perfect for those looking for a versatile and dynamic, vintage inspired instrument.
