New Collings "Baby"

Seems everyone is making a "baby" guitar these days, though some are called parlor models. But Mr. Bill Collings does it differently, and the result is a small, short-scale steel-string you'll actually WANT to play, even when your larger guitars are close at hand.

The photo below shows the Collings Baby next to a Collings OM-1, and as you can see, the scale length is the same as what you get when you put a capo at the first fret of a typical long-scale guitar.

Gryphon has long been the leader in Collings Baby sales (we've sold two dozen, despite not being able to get them for over two years), and this one is another in a long line of little Collings guitars that had to be heard to be believed. A vintage "Geib-style" hardshell case in included, and yes, you can get these into the cabin of a commercial airline flight. Turn that next boring business trip into a chance to get caught up on all the guitar playing you never do when you travel with a guitar that has the right size, and an appealing price, but sounds so awful you wind up watching the hotel room TV when you could be practicing!
