Re: Lacquer Adhesion issues?
A little update on this: I noticed an additional spot on the back of the neck. Upon a more thorough inspection, I've discovered more locations on the top edge of the headstock. This has me wondering if the issue is somehow worse when it comes to the lacquer's ability to adhere to ebony. I'm totally heart broken over it all.

In the life of the guitar, it's a bump in the road. You know Collings will take care of it & you''ll play happily ever after....

If you want it done right, and collings will do it right... That's the only place i'd send mine.

Hands down, it is the best guitar I've ever played. I absolutely love every thing about it and I consider myself extremely picky. The attention to detail placed in the construction of the instrument is commendable. Been through a lot of Martins before I sold them off and moved to Collings.
I guess it's my love of the instrument that pains me to think of the tear down and removal process that's required to correct the matter. Needless to say, the fact that I still owe over $5,000 on it is also a little irritating.

It will actually be more around 90 days, but yeah, a single day is too long
