Collings MT Mandolin, TWELFTH FRET

Collings Custom MT Mandolin

We get a steady stream of players looking for pro quality mandolins with slightly wider necks. Bill Collings already uses a nice comfortable 1 1/8" wide bone nut as his standard. This custom MT goes one step further and features not only upgraded grained ivoroid top binding, but a custom 1 3/16" wide bone nut!

Regardless of nut width and aesthetic upgrades, the MT model mandolin from Bill Collings is without a doubt the best mandolin in it's price point ... period! These instruments showcase the same meticulous fit & finish that Bill has built his reputation on and simply blow the doors off the competition from a tone and projection standpoint!!!
