CJMHDOGHAIR
Available at Acoustic Centre Melbourne
The Collings CJ MH Custom 'Jet Black Top / Doghair Finish' is a visually arresting and sonically powerful slope-shoulder dreadnought, inspired by the iconic pre-war J-45. Built in the Collings Jumbo body style, this one-off custom features a high-gloss jet black Sitka spruce top paired with Honduran mahogany back and sides in Collings’ renowned Doghair finish—an elegant trans-grey lacquer that highlights the grain with black filler for a stunning visual effect.
Beyond its show-stopping looks, this guitar delivers outstanding tonal character. Expect deep, resonant lows, articulate highs, and exceptional clarity across the spectrum. The CJ MH responds beautifully to both gentle fingerpicking and aggressive strumming, offering rich harmonic content and excellent projection. With its flawless craftsmanship and heirloom-worthy design, this Collings Custom is a rare and exceptional instrument for discerning players and collectors alike.

Custom gloss jet black top with Doghair mahogany back and sides
Slope-shouldered dreadnought body for powerful, balanced tone
Handcrafted in Austin, Texas by Collings’ expert luthiers

We endeavour to show the actual instrument in stock whenever possible, but the guitar in stock may differ slightly from the one shown on our website. Materials used can look different from guitar to guitar, including timber grain and colour, parts colours and finishing. If an instrument is a one-of-a-kind or preowned guitar, the picture will always be of the actual guitar in stock, but production models may have slight variations to the picture shown.
If you're after a particular look, feel free to email us at info@acousticcentre.com.au or send us a message through our chat service to request photos of the actual guitar in stock. We are more than happy to send through pictures of all in-stock guitars, to make your choice easier.
Please note that returns will not be accepted for variations in timber grain / colouring, finish variations and parts colouring, unless there is a fault with the instrument. If you have any questions at all regarding an instrument's appearance, just drop us a line - we're always happy to send photos, and if we have more than one instrument in stock you'll be able to choose the exact guitar that you receive!
