{"product_id":"001-14-fret","title":"Collings 001 14-Fret T Baked Sitka Vintage Satin","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Traditional Series (or “T-Series”) reflects Bill Collings’ return to his guitar-making roots, offering a distinct tonal variation on the signature Collings sound. Each T-Series model features a very thin, all-nitrocellulose lacquer finish, and its bracing pattern is more faithful to iconic ’30s-era guitars than the standard Collings line. The result is an exceptionally dynamic and responsive instrument—a modern interpretation of prewar templates. Bracing and tonewoods are carefully adjusted for weight and thickness to create a voicing characterized by warm, rounded highs, a present low midrange, quick attack, and strong projection.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA recent addition to the lineup, the 001 14-Fret T is a compact 00-size body built to the Traditional Series specifications. This 001 14-Fret T (serial #36333) features an upgraded Baked Sitka top. \u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eBaked Sitka is one of our favorite top woods because it gives a new guitar the seasoned, broken-in richness of a well-loved vintage relic. As you put a baked (torrefied) top through the paces for years and years, it'll only sound better and more refined. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis 001 14-Fret T packs a crisp, woody sound with impressive volume and balance for small body. The trebles are beautiful, and there are mahogany overtones aplenty. We describe this guitar as a small OM—the short \u003c\/span\u003escale works with the lighter Traditional bracing, so you get a similar sense of response and balance with the smaller body. The Traditional neck feels substantial in your hands, but it's nowhere near the \"baseball bat\" end of the spectrum. So with perfect, low action and a 1-3\/4\" nut width, this 001 14-Fret T plays effortlessly. With a wide dynamic range, it rewards an expressive touch. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe ordered this 001 14-Fret T with a Vintage Satin finish. The understated Traditional appointments look elegantnt with the thin satin lacquer. The Baked Sitka top shows some book-matched dark grain lines that look especially good underneath the satin finish, too. Like every Collings, the attention to detail shines through. This is a well-constructed guitar delivered on a high level. With such a comfortable size—and such a nuanced sound—this Collings is an easy favorite around the shop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eTop: Baked Sitka Spruce\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBack \u0026amp; Sides: Honduran mahogany\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eConstruction: Traditional Series Build and Voicing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNeck: Honduran mahogany\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBody Binding: Tortoise with custom wood purflings\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBridge: Ebony belly-style with 2 5\/16\" spacing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFingerboard Radius: 14\"–26\" compound\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFingerboard: Ebony with gold MOP short dots\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBridge Pins\/End Pin: Tortoise-style\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNut: Bone, 1 3\/4\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSaddle: Bone, cutthrough\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNeck Profile: Traditional\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePeghead Profile: Square\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNeck Joint: Mortise \u0026amp; tenon hybrid\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTruss Rod: Fully adjustable\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFrets: Medium 18% nickel-silver\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePeghead Veneer: Ebony with gold MOP Collings logo\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTuners: Relic Nickel Waverly\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBackstrip: 1-style (walnut)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRosette: Custom wood rosette\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eScale Length: 24-7\/8\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBrace Material: Sitka spruce\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBrace Pattern: Custom Traditional Series pre-war scalloped X-brace (abbreviated\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003esoundboard graft\/tongue brace)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBody Finish: Vintage Satin ultra-thin nitrocellulose lacquer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNeck Finish: High gloss polyester resin\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePickguard: Tortoise\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCase: Deluxe hardshell case from TKL\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Reemes Music","offers":[{"title":"36333 - Baked Sitka \/ Traditional","offer_id":53838579073343,"sku":"RMC-MUS-G45512714","price":3749.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/7535\/9039\/files\/2026Collings00114-Fret_36333_-Detail05.jpg?v=1782094393","url":"https:\/\/www.reemesmusic.com\/products\/001-14-fret","provider":"Reemes Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
