In many ways, the Collings 14-fret 00 body finds the perfect "sweet spot" between a small-body and a mid-size guitar. But at the same time, it brings something entirely new to the table: a couch-friendly guitar that sounds and looks like a million bucks. 

We ordered this Collings 002H 14-Fret (serial #33808) with a Baked Sitka top, and its back and sides are East Indian Rosewood. It's a lively, bright-sounding guitar that is still not lacking in bass content and mid-range balance. The Baked Sitka top helps in that regard, too, but like any torrefied top, it also gives the guitar a more open, played-in feel. Plus, it's a sweet size that sits comfortably on your lap. The refined tone it produces shows off the nuances and subtleties of your playing style.

Since we knew it would be such a fantastic-sounding instrument, we had to dress it up a bit, too. We ordered this 002H 14-Fret with Ivoroid binding on the fingerboard and peghead, and Flowerpot inlay on the peghead veneer. Perhaps a little flashy, but we wanted this guitar to look as good as it sounds! 

As for playability, the only customization is a 1-3/4" nut width. That extra sixteenth of an inch may not seem like much, but we find it gives you just enough room to stretch out. It's a great fit for a guitar like this, especially with the prewar-inspired Modified V neck profile.
