Features

Collings OM2 A HC Hill Country - Sunburst Top

The Hill Country series (“HC”) introduces an acoustic option that has been pushed to the far end of the tonal spectrum with a strong fundamental voice that is both warm and woody.  These guitars have a dry character and full low end that bluegrass players, in particular, will find familiar and right at home in any jam, although their responsiveness and warmth make them highly versatile and appealing for a wide range of styles.

All Hill Country models include an Adirondack spruce top, a hand-poured pickguard, wedge, and rosette ring, and a stamped logo on the back of the peghead with no logo on the front, among other unique features.

The 2-style (OM2 A HC) features East Indian rosewood back and sides with ivoroid body binding, a “zipper” backstrip, diamonds and squares fingerboard inlays, and a more intricate 2-style rosette.
