    This fine Collings OM2H hand made acoustic guitar is arguably the perfect instrument for any guitarist and very comfortable to hold and play. Amazing sparkling tone with butter like playability.

    The Collings OM2H 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. Built to the highest standard from the finest materials, for a go anywhere, play just about any kind of music, the 14 fret Collings OM2H is a serious instrument for a serious player and often favored by both flatpickers and fingerstyle players

    This Collings is a very comfortable guitar. The 1-11/16″- 43 mm nut width is preferred by players like Julian Lage, and it enables quick chord changes and fast licks. Combined with the high gloss polyester resin finish she allows smooth sailing up and down the neck. The body size is not only nice standing but definitely also when you sit on the couch playing around late at night or repeating that one phrase in the studio. Easy to hold, easy to play in all styles for hours without any discomfort. Her condition is excellent! Cosmetically she has some dents and one scratch on the top which can only be seen under reflecting light condition.
