Collings Electric Guitars : Model 290 TV Yellow

 
Collings 290 Electric Guitar
     How many companies (including the one that invented this finish) have tried to recreate the "TV Yellow" finish with disastrous ... even hideous results?  Let's just say "many".  Why am I not surprised that Bill Collings has managed to really nail it! 

     Here is our first Collings Model 290 with the translucent ... yes,  just the perfect amount of grain shows through the finish ... TV yellow finish,  along with an engraved mother-of-pearl peghead overlay,  24 7/8" scale length,  lightweight mahogany body with contoured back,  TonePro tailpiece and tunematic,  comfortable 1 11/16" wide bone nut,  Sperzel tuners and last but not least ... custom Jason Lallor P-90 pickups!!!

    As gorgeous as this guitar is,  Bill Collings has targeted the working musician for this model ... the design is intelligent and utilitarian,  the sound is versatile to say the least and the price is right!
