Why We Love This

The I-35LC Vintage from Collings Guitars takes their uber-successful semi-hollow design and incorporates what many of us here at TME struggle to describe: feel, responsiveness and musicality.

Everything about the I-35LC has been rethought with the introduction of the I-35LC Vintage, from the laminate formula used to construct the body, to the finish, to the capacitors and pickups: a looser, organic feel was the goal, and we'd say that nail's been hit on the head. The addition of a Bigsby tremolo takes the vintage vibes to their logical conclusion. If you're curious - yes, it stays in tune beautifully.

The I-35LC Vintage has a tangible liveliness about it, and its sound is breathier and warmer than its predecessor. If you're in the market for a semi-hollow that delivers vintage-inspired sound with unbeatable standards of playability and craftsmanship ~ look no further.
