About this listing
Our goal for the I-30 LC was to take the concept of a double cutaway, fully-hollow, P90-equipped guitar and refine it to the extent that it offers something truly new for today’s players. The result is one of the most acoustically responsive and versatile electric guitars we have ever offered.The lightweight “trestle-braced” body of the I-30 LC has been developed through extensive R&D and is the distillation of knowledge gleaned from our popular I-35 LC and Statesman LC. The trestle brace design directly couples the neck and tail block, creating exceptional strength and acoustical energy transference, while also allowing for a lightness and responsiveness that is both a tactile and musical joy to experience.Playing the I-30 LC, you can easily feel the acoustic energy travel through the symmetric arches and re-curves of the top and back. These plates have been custom laminated and voiced for a tonality that is acoustic guitar-like in its resonance and dynamic response, but focused and feedback resistant enough to be utilized in jazz, blues, rock n’ roll, and other styles. Our new custom-designed trapeze tailpiece provides just the right amount of “give” for a relaxed string feel and effortless playability.Lollar Dogear P90s are perfectly matched to the instrument’s acoustic response and offer a wide palette of tones from rich jazzy warmth to 1960’s British Invasion-style chime. Drawing its inspiration from both classic electric designs and our own previous models, the I-30 LC is an exciting step forward and an intriguing Collings sound.General: Brand Name: Collings Case Type: Hardshell Case Hardware Color: Nickel Made in: Made in the USA Product Color: Olive Drab Serial Number: I30LC26923 Weight: 5lbs 14ozBody: Body Binding: Non-Grained Ivoroid Body Finish: High Gloss Nitrocellulose Lacquer Body Material: Maple Laminate Body Notes: Body Width 15"; Body Length 17 5/8"; Body Depth 1 5/8"; Total Length 40" Body Shape: Fully hollow w/ parallel trestle braces Bracing Pattern: Fully hollow w/ parallel trestle braces Top Material: Maple LaminateNeck: Fingerboard Inlay: MOP long dots (5mm non-tapered) Fingerboard Material: Rosewood Headstock Inlay or Decal: Ebony w/MOP Collings Script logo Headstock Veneer: Ebony Neck Binding: Non-Grained Ivoroid Neck Finish: High Gloss Nitrocellulose Lacquer Neck Joint: Extra long mortise & tenon Neck Material: Honduran Mahogany Neck Shape: C Shape Neck Thickness (in): 1st Fret - 0.865", 9th Fret - 0.967" Number of Frets: 22 Frets Nut Material: Bone Nut Width: 1.6875" Side Marker Inlay: Black Dots Truss Rod: AdjustableElectronics: Bridge Pickup: Lollar Dog Ear P90 w/Custom Phenolic Cover Controls and Switching: 50s style wiring; 3-Way Switch; 2 Volume, 2 Tone Electronics Notes: CTS 500K / Jupiter Vintage Yellow Neck Pickup: Lollar Dog Ear P90 w/Custom Phenolic CoverHardware: Bridge: Kluson ABR-1 (nickel-plated zinc w/ retaining wire) Fret Wire: Medium 18% nickel-silver Knobs: Amber Top Hats Pickguard: 3-Ply Black Saddle Material: Metal Tailpiece: Collings original trapeze tailpiece Truss Rod Cover: 3-Ply Black Tuning Machines: Nickel Gotoh w/ Collings logo
