The Collings Forum

Is there any idea about who drew the oval logo inside the guitars? Directly under the "A" in Texas looks like a signature...maybe Edwards? Would be cool to know more information about the artist.

Good spot of that signature. I don't know who 'Edwards' is but I'll bet that if you emailed Collings then they'd tell you.

Assuming that label is on your guitar, who else has signed it as well as Bill? I notice that the model name isn't written on the lower edge.

I see one of the signatures in the guitar is of Ed Reynolds. He's a really well-regarded luthier/tech in Austin now.

I thought perhaps Bill Collings had drawn the picture but I guess not

The Collings sticker is possibly the best ever done. Both my '99 D1A and '05 D2HBaaaA are signed by Bill.

The oval logo found inside some guitars, particularly under the "A" in Texas, is often associated with the craftsmanship and branding of specific guitar makers. While the exact identity of the artist who drew this logo is not definitively established in the available information, it has been speculated that it could be a signature of an individual named Edwards. This logo serves as a mark of authenticity and quality, reflecting the heritage and artistry involved in guitar making.
In contemporary guitar culture, such logos or signatures are not uncommon, as many luthiers and brands use them to signify their craftsmanship. However, without more specific details or confirmation from the manufacturer or artist, it remains a point of curiosity among guitar enthusiasts. Further research into specific guitar brands or models that feature this logo might provide more insights into its origins and the artist behind it.
