Product information

This custom 290 is a surefire winner if you're in the market for a vintage inspired solidbody with incredible build quality and playability.

The first thing that probably jumps out about this custom 290 is the combination of a P90 and humbucker. Although it's a rarely seen configuration, we've encountered it in both vintage and modern electrics that have proven just how versatile it can be.

Sweet, chimey clear P90 tones in the neck position complements the warmth, fullness, and power of the humbucker in the bridge position. The handwound Ron Ellis pickups have incredible depth of tone and clarity as well, giving this 290 boundless access to all styles of music.

Ellis-equipped Collings electrics are a bit of a rare breed, so we don't pass on the chance to celebrate just how great these guitars are. This is a surefire winner if you're in the market for a vintage inspired solidbody with incredible build quality and playability.

If our love for all things guitar has proven anything, it's that there's still room for more of 'em! We're excited to work with builders like Collings in creating fresh, unique, and specialized custom instruments like this one that we'd all welcome in our own collections.
