The Collings 0001 Acoustic Guitar is ideal for string-band purists or any guitarist who wants a maximum of power from an instrument of comfortable size with an elegant, old-time appearance. A long with the usual options in woods, binding, and inlay, it is also available with a graceful cutaway.
The 12-fret 000 has the same general appearance as the Collings 00, but in a larger size with longer string scale. Although it's the same width and depth as the OM, the longer body typically produces more bass and overall volume.
