CJ-45 TA
Inspired by the 1940s Gibson J-45s, the Collings CJ-45 TA is now the latest member of their Traditional Series, made with mahogany and Adirondack spruce. And they “simply tweak the original; the all-new Collings CJ-45 T is a fully re-imagined instrument that offers a distinct tonal variation when compared to our CJ and CJ-35 models.” This redesign includes new bracing based on the original Gibson designs, and Collings’ latest T-Series neck design with a new version of the CJ-45 neck profile.
03 MR A 12-fret T
Collings has added a new upscale version of their smallest 12-fret size, based on the vintage Martin 0-30 and 0-27 guitars from the early 1900s, complete with brightly colored wood marquetry and other vintage appointments, and constructed with a light, responsive build like all their Traditional Series guitars.
