{"product_id":"collings-om1a-julian-lage","title":"Collings OM1A Julian Lage","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Collings OM1A JL is the result of the collaboration between Collings and Julian Lage, and it is without a doubt one of the very best guitars you can buy today. What an amazing instrument!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen Bill Collings first met the brilliant young jazz musician in 2014, the two began a series of in-depth conversations about their respective crafts. Lage's profound insights as a guitarist played a key role in the creation of Collings’ T (Traditional) Series guitars. Through this rare collaboration, which continued right up until Bill Collings' recent passing in July, 2017, the signature OM1 JL has emerged as a highly specialized version of the T-Series, designed with the characteristics in mind that Lage seeks in an instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThough the OM1A JL shares the same foundational specs of the T-Series, it is unique in some key ways. It features an Adirondack spruce top and a custom neck profile modeled after Lage’s cherished 1939 Martin 00018, which was for years his main touring acoustic. In contrast to the high-gloss finish of the T-Series, the OM1 JL is finished with an unassuming custom satin nitrocellulose lacquer that strikes an ideal balance of thin application and vintage aesthetic. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis new finish offering not only feels and looks right to Lage, he finds it has the same inherent openness of tone that is present in the best pre-war instruments. Lage’s signature model also incorporates a script peghead logo not seen on a new Collings instrument in decades. This is the inlay that Bill Colllings hand-cut some 30 years ago when he started out in a tiny shop in Austin, Texas!\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reemes Music","offers":[{"title":"\/\/","offer_id":53838958002495,"sku":"RMC-MUS-G57187835","price":4749.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"34418","offer_id":53838958035263,"sku":"RMC-MUS-G95428570","price":4749.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"36102","offer_id":53838958068031,"sku":"RMC-MUS-G46676444","price":4749.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/7535\/9039\/files\/image_1920_6677947a-0693-4924-862b-28b9720bcd6f.jpg?v=1782094902","url":"https:\/\/www.reemesmusic.com\/products\/collings-om1a-julian-lage","provider":"Reemes Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
