Bold, Grounded, Unmistakable.  The Collings 71 channels our dedication to detail and craftsmanship into a guitar that feels both familiar and entirely its own. With its set-neck construction, a Collings-stamped Rutters bridge with brass saddles, and a T-style pickup arrangement, the 71 delivers assertive sonic clarity and responsiveness.

The headstock design creates the ideal break angle without any need for a string guide, ensuring rock-solid tuning stability and even resonance across the fretboard. The 25 ½” scale and 10” fretboard radius offer a refreshing evolution in our electric lineup.

A pair of Lollar T-Style pickups produce a full voice in all three switch positions, with Davies Radio knobs, 250k pots, and Jupiter Vintage Yellow capacitors delivering the volume and tone.  Adding to its versatility, a pull of the tone knob sends the pickups into parallel for a humbucker-like boost.

Where the 71 M flexes and flows, the 71 stands firm – a grounded force that demands to be contended with. The 71 offers a confident and classic feel, while also opening the door to new sonic frontiers.

One Form, Two Temperaments.  Whether you’re drawn to the commanding clarity of the 71 or the fluid and resonant nature of the 71 M, this series invites you to explore, express, and define your own sound.
