Pre Owned 2002 Collings OM2H Sitka Spruce and Indian Rosewood ID-9413

Pre Owned 2002 Collings OM2H Sitka Spruce and Indian Rosewood

‘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… flatpickers also find it very appealing as the OM body shape allows for a more balanced tonal fingerprint than a Dreadnought would. No wonder that when Eric Clapton recorded his famous " Unplugged" record, he chose an OM body size!

The compact shape makes the Collings OM equally easy to handle onstage or when sitting on the couch. The tone is focused and powerful, as are all Collings' guitars.

The topwood on this Collings OM2H is Sitka Spruce, paired with rosewood back and sides. This is a classic combination that is highly versatile for many playing styles. Sitka can be played fingerstyle or with a flatpick and can excel at both. It is ideal for flatpickers who don't require the stiffness of Adirondack, offering more volume and responsiveness from a lighter touch.

When combined with rosewood on the back and sides, Sitka is very lush and has a warm, rich low end. The highs are also crystal clear on a Collings, since only the highest grade Sitka Spruce is chosen for their instruments. You really can't go wrong with this model!

The 1 3/4" nut width, a custom appointment on this Collings OM2H Sitka Spruce and Indian Rosewood, which gives you plenty of room for complex chord shapes. Additional custom appointments include the Ivoroid neck and peghead binding.

This Pre Owned 2002 Collings OM2H Sitka Spruce and Indian Rosewood is in excellent condition with some minor surface scratches and moderate fretwear. It includes the original hardshell case.
