From the first year of production, this 2006 Collings City Limits Deluxe in very good condition with original hardshell case. This is one stunning guitar from one of the most highly-regarded guitar companies in the world. Meticulous build quality and attention to detail. Built from seasoned premium tone woods including a fabulous figured maple top and Honduran mahogany body. Plays like butter with a fantastic action. Being an earlier model, it has a beautiful Brazilian rosewood fingerboard and headstock veneer.
There are a few cosmetic blemishes - mostly around the side the body (see photos) but nothing that would affect it's playability.
A unique and special early one that most likely had Bill Collings' DNA all over it and features gorgeous Brazilian Rosewood for the fingerboard and headstock veneer.
About the Collings City Limits Deluxe
Crafted with the finest seasoned maple and Honduran mahogany, the CL Deluxe is built for tone. Lightweight, resonant mahogany combined with a carefully hand-set mortise and tenon neck joint bring tonal complexity and sustain to the table in spades. The CL Deluxe features ivoroid neck and peghead binding and our custom ivoroid "top hat" knobs and pickup rings. Sleekly contoured for comfort and style, we've brought new life to an American classic.
