Collings / SoCo 16 LC Flame, Translucent Orange, TV Jones PU's & Bigsby / 2013 / Guitar
Collings SoCo 16 LC (new) Flame, Translucent Orange, TV Jones PU's & Bigsby, Case, COA
The reason we became Collings dealer is that these Houston, Texas, U.S.A.-made instruments are quality-wise so good that we simply couldn't resist. As the latest addition to the SoCo series, the semi-hollow SoCo 16 LC features high quality laminate construction and a larger 16" body size. Built with vintage tone in mind, the larger single cutaway design and laminate materials provide an even and focused tonal response with added warmth for single-line soloing. But this one is special indeed, more or less based on the Gretsch 6120, but with a shallow body and single cutaway construction, with Flamed Maple Top and a few custom options that look good on her, like the Translucent Orange Finish, Bigsby B7 Vibrato, TV Jones Classic (neck) TV Jones Classic Plus (bridge) pickups, and we all agree, it makes this guitar look very cool. And like with All Collings guitars it's detailed to perfection, and the tone is just top notch & Different. Features include mahogany neck, madagascar rosewood fingerboard, 43.2mm Nut width and 632mm (24 7/8") Scale length. Includes deluxe case.

The Fellowship Of Acoustics, Netherlands
ABOUT US
I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
