This mahogany C10 has two features that we really like, the most obvious is their lighter Western sunburst while the short scale, of course, you only notice when you play it. Despite the almost perfect condition this has been played as indicated by light fret wear on the lower frets. There's very light finger scuffs to the pickguard's surface but that's about it for signs of this C10 being used. The shorter string scale makes it a joy to play but the lower string tension doesn't rob a bit of its power. An impressive C10 for not much more than you'd pay for a Waterloo! Deluxe Collings case is equally clean.
