Re: Is Collings changing after Bill?
I suspect that discontinuing the T cases is a wise business decision. They are super nice, but mine sits in the closet and my D2HMR A T stays in a Mono M80 bag. I think a lot of people would prefer that the guitar cost $6-700 less. A few months back I received my custom ordered OM2 SS VN. It came w...

Re: Dreadnought for fingerpicking blues
Do dreadnought Collings guitars make good fingerpicking instruments and if so, what gauge strings should be on them?

Re: Does this "Collings" 0001 look 'legit' to you???
I found this "Collings" 0001 on eBay this morning. is it just me; or do too many things look 'not right'? https://www.ebay.com/itm/202627498881?ul_noapp=true - No label? I'm pretty sure ALL of Bills guitar had labels. Even the earliest examples?... - Says tuners are Waverlys, when clearly...
