@HaffJim Hi Jim, the 1 11/16" nut width neck profile on the OM1 JL is different, while the 1 3/4" option on the JL provides the same profile as the OM1 Traditional. If you look at model pages for each, the OM1 JL page shows the 1 11/16" option while the OM1 T page shows the T version.

Our MF O produces a rich, woody tone with a strong bass and low-midrange response, seen here in our sunburst satin nitro lacquer finish with ivoroid binding.

@xsd123456789 Hi, it varies greatly from model to model and depending upon the various options selection, materials availability, what specific dealers have on order, and more. You will need to speak with an authorized dealer for more specific info (or several, as it varies).

[Collings Guitars @collingsguitars]

Our fully-hollow I-30 LC features a trestle-braced design to keep it lightweight, responsive, and tonally even across the fretboard while providing extra structural integrity and more feedback resistance than typically found on a hollow body electric.
