This Collings C10-35 in Jet Black, combines features of the CJ35 with the C10 - and is one of our absolute favorites at the shop. Built with a Sitka Spruce top and Mahogany back and sides, it has a growling, punchy tone with a surprising amount of depth and warmth, and that distinct, vintage L-00 vibe. Featuring pre-war non-scalloped Adirondack bracing and two tone bars, it also has an abbreviated tongue brace that slightly tighten up its overall sound, and a nice mid-range reminiscent of old Gibsons. Incredibly versatile, it's especially great for folk tunes, but Robert Johnson-style country-blues and fingerstyle players will love it, too. This Collings C10-35 is an exceptional guitar with plenty to offer. Includes a Traditional hardshell case and a full setup from our luthiers.
