Collings OM1 All Mahogany

This is one sweet OM1 from Collings with an all Mahogany body. Jesse gives us an overview!
We always love getting in all Mahogany OMs from Collings. All mahogany guitars have a devout group of followers. The woody tone from a guitar with a Mahogany Top, Back & Sides is focused and yet articulate. Not all builders can handle the voicing of a Mahogany top. Collings does a great job with it and their version is also bold enough to not to be ignored. The Mahogany top provides for more sustain, slower attack, as you would expect from a heavier top. Lead players will appreciate the enhanced note definition and clarity, especially through the midrange frequencies.

I just love the tone of all hog OM/000s. These's something smooth and silky that no other acoustic has and this is a fine example. Pity I can't afford one, but I have my Martin 00015m.

u have a great guitar...I liked this Collings but thought it was a tad lean ...and too bright

[@mickymillersson4376]

@@soofitnsexy yes, I agree about the brightness. Sometimes strings make all the difference.

Interested in buying a used all hog Collings from someone and I found your video. Sounds very nice - I hear some reverb but did you add any other processing to this video?

Beautiful guitar. If I was to go all Mahogany it would be a Collings hands down. It still has some of the sparkle that usually is lost in a full Mahongany guitar.

Every all hog I've played (less expensive, you know the brand) has sounded small, boxy and muted. That Collings has now shown me why all-hog guitars are made.

I have yet to play a Collings vintage now neck. I hoping it will be similar to the neck on a Martin 0M 18 authentic but in a short scale.

What kind of strings are on it? Probably not monel? PB's?

My Harley Benton CLP15 sold wood mahogany sounds as good as this and it only cost £260
