Hey folks,

I'm moving on my Collings which I purchased about a year ago. Has an LR Baggs Anthem SL professionally installed by Mansons in Exeter.

Great guitar, beautiful woods, sound and playability but I need to raise funds in order to give me some savings in the bank as I move towards being self-employed and so it's time for it to go.

The 'VN' and 'SS' are upcharges for the neck - Vintage Now neck, so a low profile modified v with 1 3/4 nut width and 2 5/16th at the bridge, and Short Scale so 24.9" rather than your standard 25.4" - think of the guitar as a wide necked 000-28 and you're there.
