Recent Collings 290 in MINT nonsmoking condition with Ameritage Case & Unsigned Warranty Card. SO CLEAN IT STILL HAS PLASTIC ON THE GUARD (that is not funny stuff on the guard…it is plastic).
Fantastic resonant Collings quality on a guitar that could pass for new…and you save some serious cash (and STILL have the Warranty Card if that will work cool).
I A/B’d this vs. my vintage Jrs and found it has much better playability. The pickup really offers the ‘spitting nails’ tone when full out but cleans up to that perfect Tele sort of snap when the volume is rolled down. Hell, I even toyed with tossing in a vintage 50s P90 (you can get them for about $400) just to see the difference….but alas I wanted to resell a pristine instrument.
Ok SPECS ARE IN THE PICTURES WHERE YOU WILL SEE THEM IN THE SHEET…but I know you won’t loook there so I’ll save you the email saying only “weight”….next time I get that I am gunna say “230lbs down a few from a week ago”. Specs here they are:
