Default Collings 01G 12-fret German Spruce/Walnut - Bill Collings Signed Label

Collings 01G 12-fret, German spruce/Walnut - Bill Collings Signed Label
Purchased from The Music Emporium, this is a a wonderful sample of a Single Oh from Collings. Of course, the build is impeccably well-executed. The tone is warm and surprisingly full for a small bodied guitar. This guitar is in excellent condition and could pass for a new, but shop-played guitar. Bill Collings signed label (see photo).

Love this guitar but have too many and figure this is one that should sell easily since these are not easy to come by.

Specs below and I've also attached a couple of photos. For more photos, see original photos as posted by TME here:

And a review of an identical guitar by Eddie's Guitars, a very reputable shop in St. Louis:

  • German Spruce top
  • Walnut back & sides
  • Ebony pyramid-style bridge
  • Bone nut & saddle
  • Waverly Tuners
  • 24 7/8" Scale length
  • 1 13/16" nut width
  • 2 5/16" string spacing
  • TKL Case
  • Serial No. 26071

Smoke-free, cat-free home home that is maintained at 45-55% humidity. When the instrument is cased, it always has Humidipak's.

Sorry, I'm not interested in trades because I should move some out and get down to 5-6 instruments. If I didn't want to reduce my count, I'd be keeping this. While I tend to prefer more figured woods, this sounds absolutely lovely. Wouldn't at all be disappointed to hang onto it, but happy for it to land in a new home.

Was $3,500 shipped ground, CONUS
Price was reduced to $3,300
Price now reduced to $3,150

I have already bought and sold several guitars here on AGF (and literally scores of ukes on UU, FMM and Ukulele Friend). I always offer a 3-day inspection period. If not completely satisfied, notify me within 3-days and send back to me at your cost in same condition and I will refund all but my shipping cost to you.

Thanks!
