Collings OM1-T Baked As New

This one just came from a local Collings dealer. Not sure if it is a 2019 or 2020, but it is essentially a new guitar. This one has the standard Collings TKL case. Here's the Collings description

The Collings OM1-T in baked Sitka hearkens back to the traditional roots of Bill Collings while creating a new tonal variation of that distinctive Collings sound.

What part of Texas are you in?

I recently played a new D-1AT (baked) that sounded VERY good. I don't normally find many Collings that I like the tone of (or at least not enough to pay for one).

[edit]"MOP long dots" in other listings I've seen indicate the long pattern, so I'd expect dots at 12th and 15th?
And, those don't look like "Ivoroid with ebony dot" pins to me in the pic. Some kind of horn?

specs were taken from Collings site. The guitar is completely stock and as new. It has pearl dots at 5,7,9. The bridge pins are "tortoise style".

Close enough to take a look if you are interested, within 30 minutes anyway.

I played this guitar at the selling dealer when it was new. It's a good one. Good seller as well.

Thanks for the comments. This is a great deal on an almost new guitar.

That was my "stomping grounds" for most of my life, prior to becoming a Midwesterner. I still miss North Texas.

Sorry for the hijacking!! Good luck on the sale of such a beautiful guitar, westdm!
