We remember how stunning it was then, and yes, it's still just as appealing. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nThe 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. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nSunburst 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. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nIt is in perfect condition and shows almost no evidence of ever having been played.  Perfectly set up, strung with J-74. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nWith deluxe hardshell case.","brand":"COLLINGS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53614020788590,"sku":null,"price":3795.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0979\/3660\/5550\/files\/159976159280022014CollingsMTOblacktop-0920-2Main.jpg?v=1790968969","url":"https:\/\/folkwaymusic.com\/products\/2014-collings-mto-gloss-blacktop-3992","provider":"Folkway Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
