The MT2-O V is Collings' top of the line oval hole mandolin, with a powerful, nuanced and full voice, and looks to match!
In the right hands, Italian spruce and Birdseye maple make for a pretty magical combination. When those hands belong to the mandolin team at Collings, you can be sure of the result, as they consistently pull great tone out of this wood pairing. Italian spruce ranges in density, but the wood that Collings sources bears some similarity to Adirondack—stiff, light, with a strong fundamental—but also has a sweet top end. A gorgeous, one-piece birdseye maple back adds an unmistakable elegance to this build, and the varnish finish adds that extra responsiveness that these mandolins are prized for. This one features a few additional upgrades, including Waverly tuners, and an engraved tailpiece. Priced with TKL hardshell case from Collings.
