One of the best tops I have seen on a Collings. I love this Dark Cherry Sunburst finish from Collings - my favorite of their finishes. They really do a great job with their vintage finishes.
Tones are amazing. I dig the tones of both the Carved Top / Mahogany Back I-35, and the I-35 LC. Maybe this one a little more than the LC, it is more so a Les Paul'ish sort of tone with some Semi-Hollowness to it.
This one has the ThroBak SLE-101+ MXVs in there, I love those! (My I-35 LC has those as well.)
Weight is 7 pounds even, so nice to have a guitar that sounds and plays so amazing that is this light - I come from playing mostly Les Paul style guitars that are in the 8.5 to 9 pound range...
I have owned a lot of guitars in my lifetime, and my first impression of this one is that it is in the "Top 5" of all guitars ever for me, which is a pretty strong endorsement!
