    Category: Product Condition: Pre-Owned

    Our price:

    This dead mint 2014 Collings OM-42A handmade acoustic guitar is arguably the perfect instrument for any guitarist and very comfortable to hold and play. Not only standing but definitely also when you sit on the couch playing around late at night. Easy to hold, easy to play in all styles you can play for hours without any discomfort.

    The Collings OM-42A is one of the late Bill Collings finest creations!  The ‘OM’ stands for “Orchestra Model and even after 80 years of its first designed it has become the most popular 14-fret model with fingerstyle guitar soloists who choose to play on steel strings. Yet flatpickers also find it appealing. Lead players will routinely explore all 20 frets much as they would on an electric guitar. The compact shape makes the Collings OM equally easy to handle onstage or when sitting on the couch, and the relatively shallow body (barely over 4 inches deep) results in balanced tone and an immediate response.
