The Collings 001 14-Fret is an all Honduran Mahogany build- top, back, sides and neck, with cowboy rope top purfling and a 1 3/4″ nut width. Vintage vibe with 1 style features like tortoise binding, this Walnut backstrip, Mother of Pearl short dot inlays and Ebony overlay, fretboard, bridge and pins.
The 001 14-Fret finds the sweet spot between a small-bodied and mid-sized instrument while bringing to the table a distinctive voice and character all its own. Upon picking up the guitar, it doesn’t take more than a few strums to reveal a pleasing midrange resonance that distinguishes this size from other offerings. This fullness of tone is complemented by dry and articulate attack, with more low-end definition than you’d typically expect to find in an instrument of this size. The shorter 24 7/8” scale length combined with a relatively broad waist allows for a more delicate top-voicing, producing an openness that’s equally suited for accentuating subtle nuances as it is for digging in on single-note runs. All in all, the 001 14-fret is a highly versatile instrument that excels at a variety of playing styles from fingerstyle to strumming and anything in between.
