    Collings 290 DC S

     After thirty two years of building acoustic instruments, Bill decided to build electric guitars. It was a surprise to us all, but I suppose it was just an extension of his love for carving tops. Bill started building archtop guitars in the 80's and expanded to mandolins in 1999. In a way, it's a natural progression.

    Collings electric guitars are built with the finest materials available and feature custom pickups from Jason Lollar.

    You can't visit the Collings shop in the outskirts of Austin without traveling through the Texas hill country on Highway 290. Named after this highway, the 290 DC S boasts amazing versatility in it's tonal spectrum. Equipped with one hand-wound Dog Ear P90 pickup from Jason Lollar, the 290 DC S is a modern day tribute to the original working man's rock'n roll guitar.
