2014 Collings MTO Gloss Blacktop
The instrument has the classic warmth of an oval-hole A, but with the power and projection you'd expect of a Collings. It's a much thicker and darker-toned instrument than an F-holed mandolin and would certainly appeal to instrumentalists of all musical leanings.
Sunburst finished figured maple back, sides, and neck; ebony headstock overlay, bridge and radiused fretboard, bone nut, cast nickel-plated tailpiece and nickel-finished tuners with ivoroid buttons. X braced spruce top with bound oval soundhole. 1-3/16" width at the nut, 13-7/8" scale.
It is in perfect condition and shows almost no evidence of ever having been played. Perfectly set up, strung with J-74.
With deluxe hardshell case.
