RIP Bill Collings

Thanks for posting this JC. Bill was one of a kind. He wasn't one of the greatest players, but he was definitely one of the greatest artists. The craftsmanship and build quality of his guitars was second to none. As others have already said, he will be missed.

A friend of mine who frequents the Collings Forum sent me the sad news. Bill had a great gift which he shared with the rest of us.

 

I never met Bill, but Jim Baggett owner of Mass Street Music here was fairly close to him. In fact, I believe his daughter worked for Collings at one point. Ironically another friend of mine who owns two Collings had just placed an order for a third guitar that morning before he heard the news.
