Nice. I see Dru fixed your pic.

I have not played that one but remain crazy in love with my SoCo 16. I did try a SoCo with 290 with P90s.

All the Collings electrics I've had hands on and heard have been amazing. My assessment is if Gibson nails some of their iconic designs made right some time, PRS and Collings nail making them right all the time but Collings nails the build, tone, feel and look pretty much all the time.

I am not up on current pricing but if you're looking at the fat neck, custom or Memphis type Gibson ES Collings is even price competitive.

Enjoy that in good health! I can imagine how great it is after trying their other models and knowing their neck and fretboard feel.



P.S. You've changed my morning plans a bit. Time to warm the Princeton Reverb tubes and my Collings into it.
