The Collings Eastside LC is a fully hollow electric guitar made to capture classic jazz tones of the 1950s and beyond. The Lollar CC humbucker sized single coil pickup is a great fit for this goal. Set into the laminate body, it's a breeze to nail classic tones in the vein of Kenny Burrell or Grant Green (think No. 1 Green Street) This guitar is capable of lots more though.
The playability is fabulous, as expected from a Collings guitar. The action is low and fast with all notes ringing out clearly. The guitar shows light scratches and light playwear. The frets show very little playwear.
