This Collings dreadnought has had nearly two decades to open up. Tone is warm and well-rounded. Fun to fingerpick and a great strummer. This guitar is really well set-up to play. Crisp highs for flatpicking and super-comfortable action. Yet another great Collings guitar. Comes with the original hard case.
