Collings 290DC
Some things are simply better in pairs. With a
double-cutaway mahogany body and dual hand-wound P90 pickups from Jason Lollar,
the 290 DC offers unhindered access to the upper frets and a wide range of
tonal possibilities. From pristine clean tones with rich harmonic complexity to
hard-hitting classic rock sounds, there are few bases the 290 DC cannot cover.
To further the guitar's vintage-inspired tone and aesthetic, we've made
available our own custom wraparound tailpiece (optional) that's been designed to
deliver unsurpassed dynamic range and improved intonation up the neck.
