Arrow No longer for sale. Collings CW Adi/EIR Varnish









I’ve gone back and forth on selling this beautiful guitar, but a few too many guitars at home and need to raise some cash, so some lucky person will get a remarkable guitar. This 2010 CW model is a reissue of the Collings Clarence White model, Collings calls it a highly modified version of their standard dreadnought. Enlarged soundhole helps project more, no tongue brace adds to the resonance and volume. 1 23/32 nut, V shaped neck fits in hand comfortably. 2 1/4" string spacing, Pre War scalloped forward shifted bracing, Gold Waverly tuners with Ivoroid buttons, Hand rubbed varnish top which is an extra $2000 option over the standard CW. Beautiful straight grained East Indian Rosewood, wide grained stiffer Adirondack top, Honduran Mahogany neck with Diamond volute, Ebony fretboard(no inlays) and bridge, Ivoroid binding and fingerboard binding, Dalmatian pickguard, beautiful silting. Absolutely stunning guitar made with impeccable quality like all Collings. Collings TKL case.

This guitar is mind blowing loud, balanced and resonant, yet sweet sounding, all at the same time, jaw dropping amazing. Nice, full base, ringing trebles, extremely clear with tons of sustain, smooth and balanced. It is about as excellent shape as they come for a 10 year old guitar, no scratches, dings, some faint swirls, just 3 tiny impressions that I just couldn't get in right light to be able photograph. Get your hands on a near mint like new powerhouse gem for a great price. Will be packed meticulously. Paypal preferred. I have bought and sold a few guitars here on AGF with no issues, but also have 100% rating on Ebay and Reverb if there are any concerns. Shipping to continental US only.

If I could move my Harley fast enough, this would be mine. What a beautiful guitar. Always wanted a CW, and this one is a STEAL at that price. Bump for you.

The Collings CWs are monters in regard to tone and VOLUME!.. Jim's a great guy to deal with. Buy with confidence.

Thanks Frank, you're right about CW's on tone and volume, stellar in so many ways. Appreciate the comments.

I have a standard CW and can speak for the volume and tone. It is superb! I bet this one is fantastic with the varnish finish.
