The SJ is Collings’ version of what is commonly called a Small Jumbo. Although the 16 inch lower bout is slightly wider than a dreadnought, and the sides almost as deep, the tight curve at the waist creates in a very different sound chamber. Players looking for the bass and overall volume of a large guitar, but with lots of treble clarity and midrange crunch, often find just what they need in the curvaceous SJ. This wood combination truly highlights the depth and clarity of the SJ with stunning effect.
This SJ custom features a stunning set of premium Birdseye Maple with quilted figuring for the back and sides that is mesmerizing to behold. As the name goes, the rare dot and circle figuring in the wood is reminiscent of the eye of a bird, caused by unique growing conditions of the tree. A German Spruce top with vintage toner pairs perfectly with this wood resulting is a versatile guitar with punch and clarity and balance of tone. Other features include full Ivoroid bindings, Maple neck, Ebony fretboard, bridge and headstock overlay, Maple mosaic backstrip, Gold Waverly tuners, 1 11/16″ nut width and more.
