We get a steady stream of players looking for pro quality mandolins with slightly wider necks. Bill Collings already uses a nice comfortable 1 1/8″ wide bone nut as his standard. This Collings Custom MT Mandolin goes one step further and features not only upgraded grained ivoroid top binding, but a custom 1 3/16″ wide bone nut!
Regardless of nut width and aesthetic upgrades, the MT model mandolin from Bill Collings is without a doubt the best mandolin in it’s price point … period! These instruments showcase the same meticulous fit & finish that Bill has built his reputation on and simply blow the doors off the competition from a tone and projection standpoint!!!
