This great sounding, and great playing, 12-fret Collings is quite a bargain, especially for a version with an Adirondack top, because the lower (treble) side had some cracks. They were all professionally repaired and reinforced, with some shading lacquer overspray at the waist that was nicely blended in to the rest of the finish on that side. Our photo showing that area makes it look worse than it does in real life. Original case.
