Collings CJ-SB 2017 - Sunburst Mint- Condition w/ Baggs Anthem

$5250 Shipped CONUS. This 2017 Collings CJ (Collings Jumbo) Sunburst is MINT-. The guitar is unmarked but there are some, almost imperceptible, pick marks on the pick-guard only seen when turning the guitar around in the light and looking for them. Unable to photo. These (with the factory pickup) are $7150 (plus taxes) - If you could find one. You can purchase this like-new Collings CJ and save a lot. Wonderful tone and appearance. No one makes factory custom guitars that are more elegant or wonderful sounding than Collings, as everyone here knows. The burst on this is simply spectacular. Fully bound neck and headstock. It's so factory mint- I've never even installed a strap button on the heel. Only selling because of downsizing and having to sell a few of my world-class guitars.

The Collings Jumbo, or CJ, is Colling's version of the classic slope-shouldered dreadnought (Gibson J45), a shape that has enjoyed renewed popularity in recent years. While the CJ is similar in width and depth to the traditional dreadnought, it has a distinctly different tone. The tone and playability of this, like all Collings, makes it a joy to play. Ships in like-new TKL Performer black case.

Of all the Collings body shapes, this is the one most often requested with a sunburst top finish, and the wide range of wood options, neck widths, allow the CJ to be many different guitars to a wide variety of players.
