Here we have a mint condition 2008 Collings SJ in all Koa. What a beauty! Bound from the haircut headstock down to the tailpin in Ivoroid for a classic style. The unadorned ebony fingerboard let’s the amazingly figured Koa draw your attention on this big sounding SJ. The voice is wide open and very full and strong with that wonderful Koa clarity and sparkle. Gold Waverly tuners with Snakewood buttons complete this stunner from Collings Guitars.

This is an eye-catcher. The Koa is superbly figured with a tight, rolling flame that looks like rippling water. Truly stunning! The Collings folks voiced this one beautifully to bring out the clarity that Koa possesses, but they also insured it has great energy. This one sings as pretty as it looks.
I really like this instrument. The koa top makes for a clear, ringing quality that is really compelling. The high strings have a sweetness that I like and the low strings are not muddy, but still have punch. I also like the chunkier neck. Great for strumming and picking.
