From the Collings website: “Based on guitars first introduced around the same time as the OM, the Collings C10 is a leaner alternative, with the narrow waist and smallupper bout resulting in a precise, focused response. Of all our acousticmodels, the C10 is perhaps the easiest for electric guitarists to adapt to,thanks in part to the more rounded neck profile. The small oval neck heel.”

“With its unique shape and asymmetrical headstock's lines echoed in the curvilinear pickguard, C10 models offer a welcome alternative for those who find that most small acoustic guitars look too much alike.”

A fave of Rodney Crowell and Marcus Mumford, among others.
