Collings C-10 Rosewood, Sunburst Top

This instrument is NOT in stock but a similar instrument may be. It is an example of a Collings instrument that we have had in the past. You can check our inventory for a similar instrument or call us and we'll do our best to get a similar model for you.

Collings C-10 models are Bill's version of the 1930s Gibson L series, and the mahogany C-10 isn't all that hard to find. But rosewood versions, with a sunburst Englemann top? And Waverly tuners? We think this is the best of both worlds: the cool 1930's Gibson look, but with Collings meticulous workmanship and clear, even tone. The Englemann soundboard and rosewood back and sides deliver lots of bass, and one strum on this little beauty may have you putting your favorite OM-Whatever up for sale.
