Default FS: 2016 Collings OM3G Rare Collings Cocobolo/German!

I am trying to thin the herd so up for sale is an amazing 2016 Collings OM3G. I am the original owner. It sports a master grade set of Cocobolo back and sides with a pristine German Spruce. Lush overtones, fat trebles, rich bass and outstanding projection flow out of this OM. Collings hit it out of the ball park with this one!!! This is a rare Collings in that Bill has not made a lot of these with Cocobolo and it is getting rarer. This guitar is mint/like new, no scratches dings or dents. I baby my guitars and very careful with them.

I am asking 4800.00 shipped/insured. Aggressively priced to sell. I accept bank checks, money orders or paypal friends and family. If paying through paypal purchasing goods buyer pays fees. No Trades please. I have sold many many guitars on this forum with 100 percent satisfaction. I buy and sell only the finest acoustics and this one is no exception! Thanks for looking. I am not the best photographer!!!! But this should give you an idea.


Specs:
Master Cocobolo back and sides
Master German Spruce top
Adirondack Bracing
Original Ebony bridge pins come with the guitar not the ones shown
Nut width 1 3/4
String Spacing 2 1/4
Regular scale
Style 3 appointments
Gold Waverly Tuners
Body, neck, and headstock bound in ivoroid
Abalone sound-hole rosette
Collings TKL Hard shell case

Wow... so YOU'RE the guy who bought that from Redwood Acoustics.

Small world indeed...

How's the bass response of this guitar with the Coco compared to an OM2H or OM2HG (I believe you've owned both of these in the past) ?

Bass response is even better on the OM3G. Very thick and sustains for days. Incredible.

Without derailing your thread too much, I am super curious as to what you've kept lately! Inquiring minds want to know what you're playing long-term, because your flotsam is killer! GLWS
