Although our 000 has the same width and depth as the OM, the longer 12-fret body typically produces more bass and overall volume. This makes the Collings 000 ideal for string-band purists or any guitarist who wants maximum power from a comfortably-sized instrument with an elegant, old-time appearance.

Along with the usual options in woods, binding, and inlay , it is also available with a graceful cutaway.

0001 vs 0002H vs 0003

While all three models share the same body dimensions, key differences are outlined below.

  • Our 1-style (0001) features Honduran mahogany back and sides with tortoise body binding and butt wedge, b/w/b/w top purfling, a walnut backstrip, dot fingerboard inlays, and a simpler 1-style rosette.
  • Our 2-style (0002H) features East Indian rosewood back and sides with ivoroid body binding and butt wedge, herringbone top purfling, a “zipper” backstrip, diamonds and squares fingerboard inlays, and a more intricate 2-style rosette.
  • Our 3-style (0003) features East Indian rosewood back and sides with ivoroid body/fingerboard/peghead binding and butt wedge, no herringbone top purfling, a “chevron” backstrip, no fingerboard inlays, and an abalone rosette.
