Información sobre este anuncio
Condition: excellent plus, with light pick scratches on the ebony pickguard. Very little playing time on this beauty.With fully hollow laminate construction, a single Lollar Imperial humbucker, and an archtop-style tailpiece/bridge, the Eastside LC has been designed with vintage tone in mind for the professional jazz player.CRAIG'S POVI have a wonderful '52 Gibson 175 that my father bought for me when I was a kid. Over the years, I replaced the P90 with a humbucker and had the neck carved to more of a '59 feel. I know that's sacrilege to vintage aficionados, but hey, I'm a professional player. A guitar has to WORK for me. It has to be just right, or I won't bond with it, and most of all, it has to be an "elegant tool" that can get the job done.This Eastside reminds me of my 175, post-revisions. Great-feeling ’59-style neck, very light and resonant laminate construction that's impressive acoustically. It sings when plugged in. From Wes to Pat, it bleeds all the great tones, and backing off the tone control sweetens it up even more. The playability is Collings all the way. Modern look, vintage DNA built in.This particular one came from my friend Jostein Gulbrandsen, a fantastic player who recently moved back to Norway. He took good care of it. The condition is excellent, no pronounced dings or scratches, just minor fret wear. I've played a number of Eastsides over the years, and this is probably the best of them. The Collings Eastside is a winner, and this is the one.CONSTRUCTION fully hollow parallel-bracedBODY & TOP maple laminateNECK Honduran mahoganyBODY BINDING non-grained ivoroidFINGERBOARD/PEGHEAD BINDING noneBRIDGE & TAILPIECE adjustable ebonyFINGERBOARD rosewood w/ MOP long dotsFINGERBOARD RADIUS 12"SOUNDHOLE S-holes (unbound)PICKUPS single Lollar Imperial humbucker (neck)POTS/CAPS CTS 500K / Jupiter Vintage YellowKNOBS amber PICKUP RINGS blackNUT 1 11/16"SCALE LENGTH 24 7/8"NECK JOINT extra long mortise & tenonFRETS medium 18% nickel-silverPEGHEAD VENEER ebony w/ MOP Collings logoPEGHEAD PROFILE flared haircutTUNERS nickel Gotoh w/ Collings logoWIRING modernFINISH high gloss nitrocellulose lacquerPICKGUARD & TRUSS ROD COVER ebonyCASE deluxe hardshell case
