This used Collings - 2012 02H 12-Fret, here with a K&K Pure Mini installed, is lovely small-body build from the Austin, TX crew. Featuring a Sitka spruce top, paired with an East Indian Rosewood back and sides, this 12-Fret model sports a slotted headstock for the ultimate in vintage charm. This style single-0 has a longer body than the 14-fret model, which delivers a quick string response with a crisp high-end and a warm, mellow, but balanced low-end. There is what we would classify as minimal fretwear, minimal playwear and slight nick in the back of the headstock (see photos). Includes the original Collings TKL case.
