The Collings Forum

Congratulations!

My first Collings, seven years ago or so now, was a short scale OM2G I custom ordered. The folks at Collings helped me sort out what I wanted, and the guitar proved to be splendid. It's now one of four Collings guitars I have, all of which are terrific. Great guitars, and a great company with terrific people.

Ahhhh, the waiting game! It sounds beautiful. Can’t wait to see t.

Congratulations. I have custom OM1 ss with german top and koa bindings. Love it so much I have a custom CJ on order.

I tried to post some pics of my OM by inserting a Flickr link and failed. Anybody have any suggestions?

There are a few ways you can have a photo appear in your post. Most people are clicking on the Image button and pasting in the actual photo address. Not the URL page address but the photo address. You can link to the page itself but it will not give an image in your post. People will have to click on the link to see it. You can also add your photo by making it an Attachment to your post. The file size is limited to 125k with a maximum image size of 640 x 640 pixels so it is not too large on a page.

If you are still having trouble posting, just send the link to the page and we will try to figure it out.

I wish I would have done more custom options on my guitar when I ordered it. I just got a custom shade top color the rest is perfect I think...but it would be cool to have the custom label.

That is exciting! And I thought I was excited about my used C10-35 SS I just ordered from Artisan Guitars yesterday! Well, I guess I’m allowed to be exited, too! My gateway drug was a Waterloo WL-S and a WL-K. Oh my. My 3rd guitar this year!
