Collings CJ Mh Short Scale - Sunburst

The Collings CJ Mh blends the warmth and punch of a traditional slope-shouldered jumbo with the exceptional clarity, balance, and craftsmanship that have made Collings one of the most respected names in acoustic guitars. This example features the desirable 24 7/8" short scale length, offering a slightly softer string feel, enhanced warmth, and effortless playability without sacrificing the CJ's impressive projection and dynamic range. A solid Sitka spruce Sunburst top paired with Honduran mahogany back and sides delivers a rich, articulate voice with focused mids, balanced bass, and crisp, singing highs, making it equally at home with flatpicking, fingerstyle, or open-chord strumming. Finished with Collings' meticulous attention to detail and premium appointments throughout, the CJ Mh is a refined slope-shouldered acoustic that combines vintage-inspired character with modern precision.
