About this guitar
Collings’ 0001 A Hill Country is a 12-fret ‘000’-bodied acoustic that shares the OM’s width and depth but produces more bass and volume thanks to its longer body and centrally-placed bridge. This model pairs an Adirondack spruce top with Honduran mahogany back and sides. Built in Collings’ Hill Country voicing, which shifts the tonal balance toward a warmer, fuller fundamental than the standard or Traditional lines.
