She's a beauty and plays like butter but I just never bonded with her so this is a 'we'll still be friends, but I'm moving on' sale. Plus, I just picked up a CR, so this sale is timely, budget wise.
The quilted maple back and sides are stunning. Sitka spruce top and Collings haircut headstock. Currently has Living Waters strings with Low G. Geared peghead tuners. Collings attention to detail and solid construction.
Purchased from Acoustic Vibes in Tempe on 11/7/12
Original price $2,340.
Includes custom Collings case.
Price is $1,950, including shipping to lower 48. Paypal fees assumed by buyer.
Collings is apparently not scheduled to produce any more ukes until end of 2014, so this uke will be somewhat of a rarity for a good while.
I'm attaching a couple of sound samples that will hopefully open for you. Excuse my poor playing, but you'll get the basic idea of the sound. If for some reason the files don't play, I can email them (produced on a Mac using Quicktime recorder, so I'm not sure about how they will play on a PC).
Full disclaimer: seems to be a slight finish nick from the string change just below the bridge at the C string. It's extremely hard to spot and I tried to capture it in a couple of pics (attached) but it's so slight it won't even show up at close range and several angles. It is not noticeable unless you are really, really looking for it. If you're concerned I can take several more pics to see if I can get it to show up.
PM me if you have any additional questions.. thanks for looking.. Bob
