The Collings Forum

Beautiful guitar enjoy it. Do you like the bone pins? Do you notice a difference in tone? Thanks! I love the look of bone pins. I notice no difference in tone. The Ivoroid pins are fine, but just look synthetic to me....which they are. Just ordered some plain, no dot pins for this one. https://www....

Is the fretboard rosewood? Yes....Rosewood fretboard. The only Collings acoustic with a rosewood board. Although all the Waterloo's have rosewood fingerboard's. That looks really great and by the looks of your top I'd say its an Adi top? The sunburst is fantastic. Yes, I read that the fretboards on...

I'm loving mine! The midrange is just magical. It doesn't have the low-end that every Gibson J45 I've played does. But it's a special guitar for sure. I'll get a photo of this beauty soon. ;) And this neck is something. It's the biggest Collings carve I've ever experienced. At first I thought it mig...

Seems I’ve seen this same post somewhere before...

Congrats on a great guitar! I love my D1A T too~

Welcome to the forum and the Collings Club!

And like I’ve heard before, and can testify myself, that one probably won’t be your last Collings!

I use John Pearse PB Mediums 700M's... Pretty much my go to sting on all my big body Collings.

Just wondering what amp people would recommend to go with a City Limits to get this kind of tone? I quite like the "pop-grungy" sound she gets out of her bass notes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRXLtlVLiT0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-PDD4nAmc3w Any good tube amp with a good overd...
