Collings OM-2H-T Guitar

Collings guitars have always held a place on that list. Bill Collings was well know for being a stickly for detail and by some accounts, not the easiest guy to be around sometimes in the workshop. He knew what he wanted from his small dedicated workforce and demanded it constantly and for this he was highly respected.

Bill Collings was a luthier and a legend.

That kind of focus is what’s required to produce something special and likely for him,very personal. All this attention kind of comes through when you handle a Collings guitar, it’s as if they have his charactor embedded in them.

This guitar is as new and never been played so not a mark on it. We offer this guitar as a secondhand instrument but it could not be in better condition.
