Collings OM2HA Custom Adirondack Spruce and Indian Rosewood with Adirondack Bracing and Deep Body ID-5460

Collings OM2HA Custom Adirondack Spruce and Indian Rosewood with Adirondack Bracing and Deep Body

'OM' stands for "Orchestra Model," but 80 years after this body shape was first designed it has become the most popular 14-fret model with fingerstyle guitar soloists who choose to play on steel strings. The compact shape makes the Collings OM equally easy to handle onstage or when sitting on the couch, and the relatively shallow body (barely over 4 inches deep) results in balanced tone and an immediate response. Here is a special order Collings OM2HA featuring an Adirondack Spruce top with custom Indian Rosewood back and sides and the use of Adirondack Bracing for the top braces.

Adirondack Spruce is the legendary tonewood used on the early guitars we have all grown to love. The stiffness to weight ratio makes Adirondack great for players who dig in a bit harder and desire virtually unlimited headroom. The use of Adirondack Spruce for the bracing makes the bracing lighter and more responsive, offering a more efficient transfer of energy throughout the top.

Collings makes guitars with such superb tone and aesthetics. The craftmanship is top notch and comes out in the tone, playability, and feel of their great instrument. This guitar is truly a great one to add to any players collection.
