The Collings Forum

Thanks for responding. Thanks for suggestions. I use a pick. I’m thinking of replacing the strings with a heavier gauge ..say Tomastic Infeld 12’s or 13’s from the Jazz Swing group of strings ( there are Collings standard 11’s on there now). Any thoughts on an amp setting. And I agree with you that ...

I'm trying to get a deep, rich, jazz sound from my Collings I-30 LC. I have a Quilter amp. I'm trying to get a sound equivalent to a Gibson 175ES (which I have, it has become too heavy and too thick to handle - as I age). Any thoughts? String gauge, amp settings, etc. I have not had much luck. Thank...
