What can we say? This is just an amazing guitar, so we'll let the fine folks at Collings tell you about it...

We offer the 00 in its original, 12-fret configuration, a guitar shape that was first designed around the time of the Civil War. Its dimensions are similar to a typical classical guitar, with a slotted headstock and small pyramid bridge. The comfortable size and timeless appearance of the Collings 00 is matched by the ease of playing a wide neck and shorter string scale affords. The tone is typically balanced and precise, and we've seen it adopted for a wide range of playing styles from simple  vocal accompaniment to ragtime solos. When you want the durability of a  modern guitar but one that appears rooted in an earlier, simpler time,  the 00 is a versatile choice.                  This guitar features a Sitka Spruce top with East Indian Rosewood back and sides and a great feeling neck made from Honduran Mahogany. There are custom ordered diamond shaped inlays on the Ebony fingerboard.
