This pre-owned Collings MT2 Varnish is as mint as they come; and its lustrous dark sunburst finish enhances the extremely classy Collings aesthetic, giving it a decades-old look right out of the case. The sound is lively and wide open, with that identifiable Collings varnish mix of power, clarity and color. A dynamite deal for anyone in the A-model mandolin market! Please feel free to contact us for an in-hand description. Priced with its original TKL hard case.
