Collings OM2H Cutaway Wenge and Sitka Spruce Used (2024)

‘OM’ stands for “Orchestra Model,” but 80 years after this body shape was first designed it has become the most popular 14-fret model with fingerstyle guitar soloists who choose to play on steel strings as well as flatpickers alike. The compact shape makes the Collings OM2H Cutaway equally easy to handle onstage or when sitting on the couch, and the relatively shallow body (barely over 4 inches deep) results in balanced tone and an immediate response. the soft venetian cutaway allows extra access to the higher register for more variety and expression in your playing.This excellent condition 2024 OM2H is super clean and will be almost like a brand new guitar in your home.
