Collings MT-2 Mandolin, Twelfth Fret, Toronto Canada

Collings MT-2 Mandolin

Now THIS is a mandolin!!!!!!! How can a shop that builds some of the best acoustic guitars in the universe build a mandolin that is this amazing? I was expecting the same ultra precision joinery, tasteful lines and mind blowing woods as their guitars, but wasn't prepared to be completely tone-ravished! This is the kind of instrument that you'll open the case for the first time, start noodling, and the next thing you know you come out of your trance 25 pounds lighter with a full beard! Sorry, but tone just doesn't get any better than this. Period.
