Collings guitars (built in Austin, Texas) are truly among the finest guitars being built today and are considered to be the very finest by many players and collectors alike.  These guitars speak in every way.  Unsurpassed craftsmanship and attention to detail, exceptional playability and responsiveness, and some of the most beautiful tonewoods available.
