{"product_id":"collings-mf5-v","title":"Collings MF5 V","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe MF5 V is the MF5 finished in oil-based varnish. Collings keeps the carved Adirondack spruce top, the Eastern flamed maple back, sides and neck, the f-holes and the full ivoroid binding with black and white side purfling, then trades the nitrocellulose lacquer for a high gloss alkyd resin varnish and adds an ivoroid-bound ebony pickguard. The Collings tailpiece gets an engraved border.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCollings says its varnish goes on ultra-thin so the woods can resonate and respond as freely as possible. Tuners are nickel Gotoh with ivoroid buttons, and the peghead carries the mother-of-pearl Flourish inlay. For the lacquer version, look at the MF5. The MF5 Deluxe V shares this varnish and adds a tailpiece with more hand engraving, the deluxe etched Flourish and Waverly tuners with pearl buttons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTops, trim, inlays and other Collings options can be added, and the list follows below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe photo shows one example build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptions for this model include:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eItalian spruce top, or torrefied Adirondack spruce on the MT2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack or cream top finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 3\/16\" nut width\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIvoroid binding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickguard, bound or unbound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWaverly tuner upgrade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeft-handed build\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrice subject to change based on options chosen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBODY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCountry of Origin: USA (built in Austin, Texas)\u003cbr\u003eConstruction: F-style\u003cbr\u003eTop: Adirondack spruce\u003cbr\u003eBack\/Sides\/Neck: Eastern flamed maple\u003cbr\u003eBracing: Tone bars\u003cbr\u003eSoundhole: F-holes\u003cbr\u003eBody Binding: Ivoroid with b\/w side purfling\u003cbr\u003ePickguard: Ebony w\/ ivoroid binding\u003cbr\u003eBody Finish: High gloss alkyd resin varnish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNECK\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNeck Profile: Rounded V\u003cbr\u003eNeck Joint: Dovetail\u003cbr\u003eScale Length: 13 7\/8\"\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard: Ebony w\/ MOP dots\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Radius: 5 1\/2\" - 11 5\/8\" compound\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Binding: Ivoroid with b\/w side purfling\u003cbr\u003eFrets: Medium 18% nickel-silver\u003cbr\u003eNut: 1 1\/8\"\u003cbr\u003eString Spacing: 1 9\/16\"\u003cbr\u003eTruss Rod: Fully Adjustable\u003cbr\u003ePeghead Veneer: Ebony w\/ MOP Collings logo and flourish\u003cbr\u003ePeghead Binding: Ivoroid with b\/w side purfling\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHARDWARE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBridge: Ebony w\/ Adjustable Saddle\u003cbr\u003eTailpiece: Collings original tailpiece w\/ engraved border\u003cbr\u003eTuners: Nickel Gotoh w\/ ivoroid buttons\u003cbr\u003eStrings: D'Addario EJ74 (.011\" - .040\")\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDIMENSIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBody Width: 9 15\/16\"\u003cbr\u003eBody Length: 12 7\/8\"\u003cbr\u003eBody Depth: 1 13\/16\"\u003cbr\u003eTotal Length: 27 7\/16\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCASE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCase: Deluxe hardshell case\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Collings","offers":[{"title":"Sunburst","offer_id":47921406345300,"sku":"COL-MF5-V","price":19845.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0700\/1220\/7188\/files\/collings-mf5-v-front_sq.jpg?v=1792599883","url":"https:\/\/lauzonmusic.com\/products\/collings-mf5-v","provider":"Lauzon Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
