Why it matters
Collings is known mainly for acoustics, but its electric line is built to the same standard and in the same small numbers. Dave's Guitar Shop lists the 290 S at $5,275. The 290 takes P-90s or humbuckers, and the SoCo is the other model in the same range.
Note
Solidbody electrics with P-90s/humbuckers.
