Collings I-35 LC | Golden Age of Gear Ep. 38
Welcome back to The Golden Age of Gear! 🎸 This week Joey and Derek take a deep dive into one of Joey’s most played and most beloved guitars—the Collings I-35 LC.
From its stunning figured top and unique finish checking, to its upgraded Ron Ellis pickups (the same set Bill Frisell uses 👀), this guitar has serious mojo. Joey shares the story of how he first got connected with Collings through That Pedal Show, picking up his I-35 alongside Ariel Posen, and even gigging it at MerleFest.
Along the way, we talk about:
Why the Collings I-35 is a “forever guitar” and how it compares to Gibson 335-style instruments
Touring stories, dings, dents, and why wear & tear can add character
Pickup swaps, tones through a Fuzz Face & Strymon El Capistan
The Collings shop legacy and why their instruments hold value
👉 If you’ve ever wondered whether a boutique semi-hollow is worth the price, this episode is for you.
