I purchased this locally in PDX in 2021. This is a stunning guitar in its simplicity. I added a tortoise strap pin and K&K. (pickup installed by Portland Fretworks) It is well balanced and sounds amazing! It is in excellent condition. There is a minor, minor nick in the upper bout on the top barely noticeable which I clumsily did while changing strings. The TKL case is solid.

I am selling to downsize and thin the herd. I just don't play it and I am not an investor. This guitar wants to be played : )

Also some super light marks on the pick guard. It's pretty much like new. More photos available if seriously interested.

From Collings: As our newest acoustic body size, the 00 14-Fret Series finds the sweet spot between a small-bodied and mid-sized instrument while bringing to the table a distinctive voice and character all its own. Upon picking up the guitar, it doesn't take more than a few strums to reveal a pleasing midrange resonance that distinguishes this size from other offerings. This fullness of tone is complemented by dry and articulate attack, with more low-end definition than you’d typically expect to find in an instrument of this size. The shorter 24 7/8” scale length combined with a relatively broad waist allows for a more delicate top-voicing, producing an openness that’s equally suited for accentuating subtle nuances as it is for digging in on single-note runs.
