*This is a used guitar in very good condition
*This is a consignment item
*Includes original hard shell case

*Observations: This all-hollow black-top beauty was custom-ordered from Collings with ThroBak humbucking pickups instead of the P90s this model is normally equipped with, giving this guitar a uniquely lively, rich, jazzy tone for a Thinline-style instrument. It has a good amount of light scuffing and scratching on the top and pickguard from normal playing wear, and some light buckle rash on the back but everything is structurally in fine shape. There is very little fret wear and playability is excellent. The ThroBak SLE-101 Plus pickups sound absolutely fantastic and the electronics are in perfect working order.

I-30 LC

Collings' goal for the I-30 LC was to take the concept of a double cutaway, fully-hollow guitar and refine it to the extent that it offers something truly new for today’s players. The result is one of the most acoustically responsive and versatile electric guitars we have ever offered.

The lightweight “trestle-braced” body of the I-30 LC has been developed through extensive R&D and is the distillation of knowledge gleaned from Collings' popular I-35 LC and Statesman LC. The trestle brace design directly couples the neck and tail block, creating exceptional strength and acoustical energy transference, while also allowing for a lightness and responsiveness that is both a tactile and musical joy to experience.

Playing the I-30 LC, you can easily feel the acoustic energy travel through the symmetric arches and re-curves of the top and back. These plates have been custom laminated and voiced for a tonality that is acoustic guitar-like in its resonance and dynamic response, but focused and feedback resistant enough to be utilized in jazz, blues, rock n’ roll, and other styles. Collings' new custom-designed trapeze tailpiece provides just the right amount of “give” for a relaxed string feel and effortless playability.
