Regrettable sale, but I've just bought a vintage '72 Thinline Tele.

Bought new from Coda in May 2016, where I spent a day playing EVERYTHING !!! This was the best of the bunch imho. Over £4000 new. Lovely condition with amazing Collings case.

Custom spec, with very rare Tortoiseshell binding. 

Barely used, and only at home. A genuinely beautiful looking and sounding instrument, which has been a delight to own.

Looking for around;

£2200.

These really are something special, the build quality is unquestionable but more impressive than that is the tone. It's beautiful to look at & even better to play.

Stunning OM1 with the additional options of sunburst finish, mahogany top, 1 3/4 Nut, Tortoise-style binding to headstock and neck.

The compact body size makes the Collings OM equally easy to handle onstage or when sitting on the couch, and the relatively shallow body (barely over 4 inches deep) results in balanced tone and an immediate response.

Mahogany Top 

Adirondack Spruce Braces

High gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish
