Re: OM1-A Varnish "High Upkeep"
I've not owned a Collings w/ varnish but I'd read every post about them on the previous forum and though there was no consensus I can reiterate that the opinions ranged from (paraphrasing) "they're no more difficult to take care of than nitro finishes" to "they are fragile and require...

Re: Where do you find good, used Collings guitars?
I just checked CL for Los Angeles and only two guitars are listed (and one isn't really in LA). Either CL isn't a good resource for used Collings or people aren't selling them right now.

I was hoping to take some photos and post them here but I'll now be out of town and can't attend. Hopefully someone will let us know how it goes, and what's new.

Re: Stability of Torrefied Tops
It's always been an interesting topic. Opinions vary greatly, and can be quite strong (for *or* against). It's also difficult to test apples-to-apples, for obvious reasons.

Re: Collings Gathering 2019
I have owned Collings guitars for about 5 years and this is the first I've seen of a gathering. Probably due to not frequenting this forum until now. IF there is such a list, please put me down for future notifications on gatherings. Thanks, Steve It began as the Collings Forum Gathering back at th...

Re: truss rod adjustment
Conversely, there would be no harm in trying the adjustment to see how it hurts or benefits the action. Just remember how far it was turned so that you can go back if needed.
