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.

The I-35LC Vintage redefines what a semi-hollow electric can be, with every detail meticulously reimagined to achieve a looser, more organic feel. From the re-engineered laminate and center block recipes to the custom Throbak pickups and Luxe Bumblebee capacitors, every element works in harmony to deliver an instrument that feels alive in your hands.

This guitar’s sound is undeniably vintage-inspired—breathy, warm, and open—but paired with the unparalleled playability and craftsmanship that define Collings guitars. The proprietary aged finish and hardware process add to its undeniable character, offering the look and feel of a well-loved classic while expanding its tonal versatility.

Drawing inspiration from the most iconic instruments of the 1960s, the I-35LC Vintage offers a tangible liveliness and dynamic response. Whether you’re a tone chaser or a player seeking an exceptional semi-hollow, this guitar delivers the soul of a vintage classic with modern reliability and attention to detail.

If you’re looking for the perfect blend of vintage vibe, organic tone, and cutting-edge craftsmanship, the I-35LC Vintage is it.
