Premium Tonewoods Each Collings 290® is constructed of solid Honduran mahogany that is acquired, acclimated, and hand selected for density and acoustical response by master luthiers here at our shop.

Electronics The Soapbar P90 has a fat and round bass response with a smoother treble than a traditional P90. This is a hugely versatile pickup with lots of vintage-style warmth.

Playability A combination of exacting PLEK machine leveling and hand fret dressing ensures consistently excellent playability and a silky fret feel.

Finish By meticulously hand-sanding between coats, our nitrocellulose lacquer finishes measure between .005 and .007 thousandths in final thickness, maximizing acoustical response while providing excellent protection.

Hardware Collings electrics feature Gotoh SG301 tuners and Kluson tune-o-matic bridges and stop tailpieces.

Custom Trim We craft our pickguard and peghead materials in house, providing custom aesthetics like our etched pearloid peghead veneer, Highway 290 truss cover graphic and many more.

Full Body Finishes Being constructed of all mahogany, each 290® can be finished with a variety of colors and full body sunbursts, including our custom Doghair finish.
