Les Paul vibe but with contour body comfort and a level of fit and finish that's hard to match, even from a major brand Custom Shop or an individual builder. The Collings dark cherry sunburst finish is perhaps lovely and has a classic yet contemporary look. Lollar Imperials handle the tone angle, while Collings classic '59/early '60 neck shape and fretting details make this a dream to play, even when practicing without plugging in.
