The Collings MT GT mandolin, serial# 3209, has a fabulous sound and an outstanding appearance -check out that Amber gloss top. The Englemann Spruce top is paired with gorgeous Flame Maple back and sides that have a satin finish and it's all set off beautifully with tortoise binding. The V shaped Maple neck has a radiused Ebony fingerboard with a 1 1/8" nutwidth and an Ebony fretboard.
The whole build quality is exceptional and though Collings calls the MT its 'entry level' mando, this is a pro player all the way. Exceptional details like the bone nut, 'beesting' black back on the cool 'haircut' headstock and the black tuner buttons give it a real elegance. An incredible sounding instrument with looks to match, this Collings MT GT mandolin comes with a hard case and full set up to your specs.
