{"product_id":"mto","title":"Collings MT O Satin Sunburst","description":"\u003cp\u003eCollings started experimenting with mandolin family designs in 1999, and Collings quickly became some of the most highly-regarded mandolins made in the US. Constructed of the finest materials available and built with 21st-Century precision, Collings mandolins are serious instruments for serious players. Nowadays, Collings offers a limited lumber of mandolin build slots, so brand new Collings mandolin are hard to find and used ones don't come around often!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Collings MT O is a variation on the classic A-Style mandolin template. It features an oval soundhole, a shorter 12-fret neck, and a slightly wider 1-3\/16\" nut. This design draws influence from early-1900s mandolins with oval soundholes that give them a sweet, more-rounded tone. Of course—like every Collings—the MT O is built with a level of precision that you won't find from any one else. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Collings MT O (serial #A4725) sports a gorgeous satin sunburst with upgraded Ivoroid binding around the top and edge of the oval soundhole. It produces a warm, open sound that accompanies voice better than an f-hole mandolin. A perfect fit for old-time and traditional styles, the oval soundhole shines for folk accompaniment or anything where a richer, warmer sound is desired. Way more range a simple bluegrass instrument, this is an impressive mandolin from an impressive builder at the top of their game. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction: A-style\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop: Engelmann spruce\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack\/Sides\/Neck: Eastern flamed maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoundhole: Oval hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Binding: Ivoroid (top)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBracing: X-brace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge: Ebony w\/ adjustable saddle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard: Ebony w\/ Mother-of-Pearl dots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut: 1-3\/16\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eString Spacing: 1-9\/16\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Profile: Rounded V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Joint: Dovetail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrets: Medium 18% nickel-silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTruss Rod: Fully Adjustable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeghead Veneer: Ebony w\/ Mother-of-Pearl Collings logo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuners: Nickel Gotoh w\/ black buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale Length: 13-7\/8\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard Radius: 7\" - 11 5\/8\" compound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Finish: Satin nitrocellulose lacquer\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTailpiece: Collings original tailpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Collings MTO includes a deluxe hardshell case from TKL.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reemes Music","offers":[{"title":"A4725 - Satin Sunburst \/ Ivoroid Binding","offer_id":53838595555647,"sku":"RMC-MUS-G27891157","price":2349.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/7535\/9039\/files\/2025CollingsMTO_A4725_-Detail05.jpg?v=1782094411","url":"https:\/\/www.reemesmusic.com\/products\/mto","provider":"Reemes Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
