Collings / 290 Lefty Prototype Doghair 50's Retro / 2000's / Guitar
|
The LH Prototpye Collings, complete with documents certifying its authenticity.
The Collings 290, featuring two custom Lollar pickups and a mahogany neck and body, is a rather remarkable example of what is possible within this seemingly simple design formula. The finish seems to have been applied thinly, with the clear coat’s surface showing just the slightest hint of the wood’s underlying grain.
The Austin-based guitar company is known for their nearly-legendary build quality, and the 290’s noticeably crisp edges and jewel-like fretwork are no exception. The 290 retains a distinctive look without the need for binding or abalone. Tasteful is the word here, and subtle touches like ivoroid dot fingerboard inlays and tuner buttons, coupled with a mother of pearl Collings logo on the headstock, offer more than enough flash for a machine this focused on function. The East Indian rosewood fingerboard isn’t afraid to show some grain either, adding to the guitar’s classy, yet stripped down vibe.
Collings 290 Another aspect of the 290 that sets it apart from similar instruments is its unique, big-bottomed silhouette.
