The Collings C100 Acoustic Guitar is the bigger, bolder cousin to Collings' classic C10 model and the newest body shape in their acoustic lineup.
The Collings C100 combines parlor-style proportions with the power and volume of a large-bodied instrument.
With a nearly 16-inch lower bout and 4-3/4-inch body depth, the C100 offers no shortage of solid, low-end response, yet the narrow waist and non-scalloped bracing design provide exceptional balance and clarity typically found only in smaller-bodied instruments.
Whether you’re a flatpicker, fingerstyle player, or something in between, the Collings C100 offers impressive versatility and just might be the ideal companion for singer-songwriters looking to fill the room with sound while still leaving space for vocals to shine through.
