2016 Collings I-35 LC Faded Cherry
The guitar features highly figured maple laminate top, back, and sides; inset maple center block, slim contour F-holes, aged white bindings, mahogany neck, and dot-inlaid rosewood fingerboard. This example was built with ThroBak Vintage PAF pickups, tone pros bridge, and bevelled 3 ply pickguard. Faded cherry finish (which they absolutely nailed), and aged finish and hardware. The nickel parts show light oxidation, and the finish is crackled and buffed to a medium lustre. There is no intentional mechanical aging.
A more perfect neck carve might not exist. The I-35 LC's neck has a medium depth, rounded carve with beautifully rolled edges. Nut measures 1-11/16”, scale is 24-7/8”, and the fingerboard is a straight 12” radius. Long mortise and tenon neck joint for the best in tone, and contoured heel for the best the feel.
The guitar was purchased new through Folkway in 2016, and shows no playwear whatsoever. Set up is perfect. This example is serial numbered 16762.
