Waterloo WL-S (2019)

*Used! The Waterloo line of guitars from Collings are some of the nicest instruments to grace our shop. With aesthetic, vibe, and sonic qualities of the dust bowl era builds – the Waterloo instruments impress all, with Collings level craftsmanship, and without a huge price tag.

The WL-S possesses exceptional tonal clarity, dimensionality, and punch. Inspired by 12-fret Stella guitars from the 1930’s, the WL-S features a unique 24 7/8″ scale length that creates a round note attack and detailed string-to-string separation. Comfortable 1 3/4″ Nut width is easy on the hand, and is complimented by a vintage correct “Soft-V” neck profile with an adjustable truss rod. Slotted headstock, and a pyramid bridge with a cutthrough saddle. A semi-gloss nitrocellulose finish completes the WL-S both aesthetically and tonally, with a beautiful iced tea sunburst and acoustical liveliness that brings out the nuances of this ladder braced design. Solid cherry wood back and sides further enhance the unique character of this guitar, providing exceptional balance and articulation.

Although used, this guitar is in fantastic condition with virtually no wear. The neck profile has naturally glossed from play time, but thankfully the frets and fingerboard are very clean. A nice setup, currently strung up with Martin retro strings, it plays with even low action and a straight neck. A fantastic guitar for the price point.

Hardshell TKL case included.
