Experience warm, rich oval-hole resonance paired with flawless Austin craftsmanship in the Collings MT-O Mandolin! Weighing an agile 2 lbs 1 oz, this A-style oval-hole model features a select Engelmann spruce top backed by custom X-bracing, paired with select figured maple back, sides, and neck. Dressed in a rich Sheraton Brown satin nitrocellulose finish, it is accented by elegant ivoroid body binding and a tortoise rosette surrounding the oval soundhole. The maple neck features a comfortable V profile, a 1 3/16" bone nut, and a 7"-11 5/8" compound radius ebony fingerboard adorned with mother-of-pearl dot inlays. Topped off with Collings' signature unbound "Haircut" headstock, a custom adjustable floating ebony bridge, and their original one-piece tailpiece, this MT-O delivers exceptional warmth, sweet sustain, and woody acoustic projection. Complete with a Collings deluxe hardshell case by TKL, it is an essential addition for folk, Celtic, or old-time players seeking refined boutique tone.
