The question of sound is a secondary one when beholding this AT-00. Does is sound incredible? You bet it does.

For 2023's Fretboard Summit in Chicago, Collings Guitars presented several pairs of guitars featuring never-before-seen model specs and custom detail work hand-executed by their small team of master luthiers.

This gorgeous AT-00 is constructed from private-stock flamed Maple & European Spruce and features a Madagascar Rosewood bridge, fingerboard, pickguard, and peghead veneer. As is that weren't enough, it's also fully bound in solid Walnut.

This guitar represents a new & exciting direction at Collings Guitars - whether we think of it as a 'Custom Shop' or 'Luthier's Choice' program, this instrument is built outside the normal production process, with materials and conceptual designs only selected by the company's top brass.

While originally conceived as a pair with a matched C10, we recognize that musical & stylistic preferences may dictate that certain guitarists will favor one guitar significantly over another ~ so we've decided to offer the instruments from this pair individually.
