This 1996 SJ Jumbo from Collings is a stunning build with equally as impressive sound. Here in a Small Jumbo shape, this '90s-era Collings features a Sitka Spruce top and a classic but beautiful Flamed Maple back and sides for a more pronounced midrange response. Thanks to the bigger body and elegant curves, this guitar delivers great treble and powerful bass, as well as plenty of volume, filling that classic singer-songwriter/country acoustic role.

Here in Very Good condition, especially so for a 30-year-old guitar for its age, it does have a few small dents in the finish on the top as well as standard playwear on the pickguard. There is a professionally repaired, stable top crack with the work having been done here in our shop previously. There is also a minor strip of discoloration on the back as well (see photos). There are also a few nicks and dings to the headstock. Includes a Fishman Matrix pickup already installed and the original Collings hardshell case.
