This is the instrument that people are talking about, the lightened short scale Collings fingerstyle OM. This custom Collings OM-1 is loud and balanced with a loose, high performance feel. This makes bending strings a one finger affair and bar chords effortless. It has a big bass with continuously balanced tone and volume up the neck, great clarity, brilliance and focus but still a smoky, woody warmth in the bass. The OM-1 short scale is one of the best choices for country blues fingerstyle. The German Spruce top, short scale and reduced footprint bridge and lighter body build give these a woody, sweet but articulate voice, with great sustain and volume but it still has the fundamental initial brilliance of voice Collings is famous for.
