Collings MF5
Collings' commitment to workmanship of the highest order is immediately obvious in the MF5. The instrument is exquisitely crafted -- with flawlessly glossed nitrocellulose lacquer finish, finely mitered ivoroid bindings throughout, masterfully carved top, back, and scroll, and some of the most attractive tone woods imaginable. The top is carved of quartered Adirondack Red spruce with absolutely perfect quarter, evenly spaced grain, and zero run-out; we've never seen such a perfect top. Back and sides are gorgeously flamed hard maple, with deeply accentuated -- almost iridescent -- grain. It's just a beautiful instrument.
1-1/8" bone nut, 13-7/8" scale, adjustable ebony bridge, 22 fret radiused fingerboard, pearl inlays and headstock flourish, Collings one-piece tailpiece, and nickel tuning machines with ivoroid buttons.
With deluxe Collings hardshell case
