Looking for feedback and comments on this 2007 Factory Special Custom I290 hand-painted in Candy Apple Tangerine Metallic and signed by Bill Collings. A unique instrument.

Not much action around here any more. A shame, really. This place was jumping back in '12 but it was a different world in those days - Oregon and Texas were both in the same country, then.

Well, if anyone wants to make me an offer that I can't refuse.... something 'north' of $4000. My research has shown me that it's a unique instrument, absolutely pristine, factory, signed by BC. Lot's of rich cowboys around these parts - it may be of interest to a collector.

I'll probably put it on consignment at the local Collings dealership here in PDX.

If anyone has a really nice 12-string in that ballpark $ range I may consider a trade.

The case.

I'm going to post a few new pics from time to time to bump this back to the top. I didn't realize that I had exceeded the 6 pic limit per thread in my posting this guitar to the 'Show Us your Ciollings' thread - see link in the top of this thread.

Just to bump it up.

Two sets of pristine pick guards/pup covers,both cream & black. Both have protective plastic still attached. Black only on back.

Still willing to trade for Collings 12-string...

What do you mean by saying “Oregon and Texas were in the same country then?”

Just a bad joke, Pard - not trying to ruffle anyone's feathers! ;) Hope you didn't find it offensive.
