Hello,
I'm putting up my Julian Lage signature OM with the Collings handmade case and upgraded top. This one has the standard 1 11/16" nut width. It's in great condition with low mileage. A strap button was installed. SOLD!

Re: WL-12 Mahogony - Is action higher on 12 fret?
How about this. Keep the original saddle but make a second once to accommodate a lower action. The saddle is not glued down. The nut slots might need attention as well but are of course not drop in.

Do you have someone nearby who could do a proper setup on the guitar? Collings guitars come with medium low action and can go down a bit if you prefer the lowest action.

Re: Collings Playability
JohnB, that's great to hear. Did your tech share with you what may have caused the problem? I always adjust my nut and saddle as low as possible and have my necks fairly straight. I don't have that guitar anymore as I have gone mahogany full-time (vacation and sick days included).

Re: Collings Playability
Of the small sample of Collings I've owned one was stiffer, feel-wise, than others. It was an OM2HT and was stiff even with 12s. All others play like butter. Buck, you have way more experience with guitars than I do but one of the easiest playing guitars I had was Pre-War Guitars Co. which had a sup...

Re: Traditional Series Neck Size Change
Not sure when the switch happened but I had a few which had very large necks. I am selling a 2017 which has a slimmer neck.

Re: Waterloo finish - what do you call it?
Lowdens used to have a similar satin finish, after 25 years playing & polishing mine has turned gloss pretty much all over, Would love to see a Waterloo in a few years time. I love that look too. Like an old leathery Gibson The Waterloos don't take long at all to shine up. I would call the orig...

Re: Is Collings changing after Bill?
I was really hoping these cases would inspire other manufacturers to come out with better cases as well. Long shot but I did dream that. Taking these away just shuts that door even though it makes sense for their business.

Re: Collings 6/1
That is a shocking. I thought there was an increase recently maybe this is the official date. I hope the --AT's are not approaching 7K already especially without a soon to be vintage vintage case. Is there any news about new models? How do you like your D1AT? I feel like my latest sounds the best of...
