Not that Collings has "one flavor", it doesn't. Before buying my OM2H I tested out a dozen or more Collings of many sizes and woods, and of course all were different. But I would say the degree of variation is greater for the SCGC line than the Collings lines I tried (00, OM1 and OM2, D1 and D2, all types of bracing and tonewood variants).

Collings
A Collings OM3 stole my heart back in 1998 and the love affair grows stronger every day.

I guess that was my point. Since this thread was started Collings has introduced a wider spectrum of tones into their lineup. Some that I think would appeal to SC players. Essentially I was wondering what SC players think of similarly styled Collings in the newer offerings.

But - SC builds very few instruments, and have only a handful of dealers throughout the world, so more possible variety from Collings makes the future look even better for players choices -

Agreed. For example the CJ-35 and C10-35 and now the new CJ-45T. All of these have few equivalents from any other makers at the present time given their combination of larger neck profiles, generous string spacing and short scale. From what I can gather these impart a more vintage-oriented tone while still benefiting from Collings typical responsiveness and playability.
