Collings 01 Guitar

This Collings 01 guitar is a gorgeous playing and sounding small bodied guitar that puts out a heck of a lot more tone and volume than you would think would come out of such a small instrument. When we first unpacked it and took it out of the case the guitar was still in tune! We then proceeded to try it out and about 2 hours later we finally put it down. What a tremendous guitar for such a small package!

Incredible fingerpicking guitar, as the smaller scale allows you to reach some hard to reach shapes often found in solo fingerstyle guitar pieces when you are trying to get both the bass notes and melodic notes cleanly.  

When we tried it out with a flatpick the guitar just exploded in tone! Somehow it handled the harder attack of bluegrass style flatpicking guitar without breaking up at all. 

Shop Damaged

Unfortunately, this Collings 01 guitar received some shop damage when we bumped it with a camera while shooting it. There is a small ding on the back of the guitar (see the last 2 photos). Contact us to find out your price.
