Collings Traditional CJ-45 T #34450 - sunburst

This COLLINGS Traditional Series CJ-45 T #34450 is an absolutely marvelous steel-string acoustic guitar in the Dreadnought Slope-shoulder style with short scale. Its all-solid-wood construction (Sitka spruce top, Honduras rosewood back and sides, rosewood fingerboard) provides a woody, natural and direct sound.

The Traditional range offers instruments with a vintage temperament directly inspired by legendary "Pre-War" acoustics. Their temperament is characterized by particularly round, warm trebles, generous, present mids, great responsiveness and strong projection.
These characteristics have been further enhanced by a re-imagined construction, including new bracing. Sitka spruce is the traditional choice for the vast majority of acoustic guitars. Thanks to a perfect balance between robustness and elasticity, Sitka generates a direct, punchy sound with impeccable articulation. These characteristics give this species great tonal flexibility and adaptability to virtually any playing style: strumming, flatpicking or fingerpicking. Highly prized, Honduras Rosewood is much denser than other rosewood species. This contributes to its harmonic richness and complexity. It produces incomparable hushed tones while preserving the clarity of more traditional rosewoods. For these reasons, Honduran Rosewood is the preserve of the most prestigious acoustics, and Collings dominates most of its competitors with exceptional acoustic quality and craftsmanship. Collings high protection case included.
