Immerse yourself in vintage archtop elegance with the Collings Eastside LC! Weighing an exceptionally light 5 lbs 13 oz, this 16" fully hollow archtop pairs a select figured maple laminate body with parallel bracing and a mahogany neck, finished in high-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer accented by aged white binding and graceful unbound S-holes. The neck features a comfortable Medium-Fat "C" profile, 24 7/8" scale length, a 1 11/16" bone nut, and a 12" radius fingerboard appointed with mother of pearl dot inlays. It is anchored by an unbound "Haircut" headstock with an ebony overlay and nickel Gotoh tuners (1:18 ratio). Electrically, a single Lollar Charlie Christian pickup drives a modern wiring scheme with CTS 500K pots and Xicon caps, delivering rich, warm, and articulate jazz-to-blues tones. Complete with a custom floating ebony bridge and tailpiece and a Collings deluxe hardshell case by Ameritage, this Eastside LC offers master-tier craftsmanship and timeless acoustic-electric resonance.
