Collings City Limits Jazz Blonde w/ Broken Glass Inlays

Sold

Description

"Every day we try to make a better guitar, every day. You're trying to reach for more, trying to do better, not trying to do the same. A lot of companies are trying to do the same, and that's okay - that's their deal. We're trying to stretch that. Our goal is a little more." - Bill Collings

Just in from Collings Guitars -- a rare CL Jazz in Blonde finish! The CL Jazz is the most complex-sounding thin-bodied archtop we know, with plenty of punch and volume for acoustic playing, and a velvety smooth sound when amplified. The Blonde finish lets this guitar's gorgeous European Spruce top shine through; and you won't find a finer gig-ready jazz guitar anywhere in the world. Priced with Ameritage hard case!

Pictured guitar is in stock. Video sample reflects a previously-sold CL Jazz with identical specs and a different finish.
