2016 Collings OM2H Wenge German Spruce
Offered for your consideration is this custom Collings OM2H Wenge G. Built in 2016, this wonderful instrument blew us away with it's high-end tonewoods, elegant cosmetics and piano-like tone.
This beautiful OM has a lovely straight-grained German Spruce top combined with Wenge back and sides, 14 fret Mahogany neck and 25-1/2" string scale. The neck has Collings' Modified V (very soft) neck shape with depth measurements of .84" at the first fret increasing to .93" at the ninth fret. It has a 1-3/4" bone nut and a bone saddle with 2-3/16" string spacing. It weighs just 4 pounds, 3 ounces.
While beautiful to behold, you will find this guitar is even better to play and hear. This thing sounds like a grand piano to my old ears - with a bell like clarity that is likely attributable to the exotic Wenge tonewood used. Please check out the brief sound sample provided and hear the fabulous tone of this lovely instrument. It nearly plays itself too, with it's great setup with 12th fret string heights of 3/32" on the low E side and 2/32" on the high E side. It is currently setup with my preferred acoustic strings, Elixir Phosphor Bronze lights.
This instrument will come to it's next owner in excellent condtion with the only flaws being a couple of tiny fingernail impressions south of the pickguard (see photo). You will need magnification and strong light to see these tiny imperfections. The frets look like new. It comes in it's original Collings case in near mint condition.
A new Collings OM with these upgrades ($600 for the Wenge and $650 for the German Spruce options) would cost you $5,700, but this beauty can be yours for quite a bit less.
Make this incredibly sounding and playing Collings yours today. You will be very, very glad you did!
