Collings torrefied sitka MT in the house
I saw this when Avenueguitars(formerly tejonstreetmusic) sent an email notice on new instruments in the shop. I love MT's, and especially simply appointed Mt's. I took notice of the Collings announcement some months back of the first MT with torrefied top Sitka and liked what I heard.
This cool dark shaded MT I watched for maybe 2 months. Figured it would sell quickly, but it kept hanging on the wall. Not that I needed a mandolin, but this one kept calling out to me. Called Sean up a week+ ago and he confirmed that it was a very cool MT with an excellent voice. Its pretty to the eyes as well. In person the gloss top and darkish brown gives it an old character to ones senses. The tone does also. The simple binding with the small white line just works. Plays like a dream, super low action, feels light as a feather.didn't need another mandolin, but this sure is neat and comes with a lot of mojo. Last edited by darylcrisp; 12-28-2018 at 07:34 PM. |

Really classy looking! The flamed Maple is stunning with the dark bindings and burst finish.
