Built with masterful precision and vintage spirit, this handcrafted acoustic is a tribute to timeless tone. Featuring an Adirondack spruce top paired with East Indian rosewood back and sides, it delivers rich harmonic depth and crisp articulation. The Honduran mahogany neck and compound-radius ebony fingerboard offer exceptional comfort and playability, while the pre-war scalloped X-bracing brings out bold projection and nuanced dynamics. Appointed with elegant ivoroid herringbone binding, abalone inlays, and a Collings MOP logo on stained exotic ebony, this guitar is both a sonic and visual masterpiece—perfect for the discerning player who demands inspiration in every note.
