I-35 LC-FC

Collings I-35 LC 'Faded Cherry' Electric Guitar

Available at Acoustic Centre Melbourne

Includes Hardshell Case

The I-35 LC represents a breakthrough in semi-hollow guitar design, developed through a custom laminated construction technique pioneered by Bill Collings and his R&D team. This innovation was driven by the pursuit of achieving the optimal tonal qualities needed for electric guitars played at higher volumes. By focusing intensely on the resonant properties crucial for classic semi-hollow tones, the I-35 LC seamlessly integrates acoustic responsiveness with electronic capabilities.

Crafted individually in-house for each guitar, the Collings laminate line employs custom laminated maple for the top, sides, and back, paired with an all-mahogany neck. This meticulous construction approach ensures superior response and tone, setting the I-35 LC apart as one of our most articulate and versatile electric models. Whether you're looking for clarity in high-gain settings or nuanced dynamics in clean tones, the I-35 LC delivers exceptional performance and sonic flexibility, making it an ideal choice for discerning musicians seeking premium craftsmanship and unmatched tonal precision.

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!
