Re: No More Collings Cases?

My advice is to sell that case off and get a Hiscox Pro II case. Darn near bulletproof (I've put mine to the test for the past 8 years with heavy (prepandemic) international travel) and equipped with "D" rings to hook a shoulder strap to. All of my acoustics now live in Hiscox Pro II cases...

Re: Collings D2HA, $3900

At 75, the time has come for me to do some downsizing. Available for purchase is my 2014 Collings D2HA I bought new at Gryphon seven years ago. It is an incredible guitar in every respect! Nut size is 1 11/16". Sorry, but I WILL NOT SHIP this guitar. A previous bad experience convinced me to n...

Collings Traditionals vs Hide Glue?

I read somewhere that Collings has stopped using hide (protein) glue on their Traditional guitars.

Any truth to this and, if so, what's the story behind it?

Re: Favorite Collings tonewood combo
