Collings D1 Guitar & Case 1 3/4″ Nut (Torrefied Top)

$5,275.00

The square-shouldered 14-fret dreadnought is the most popular steel-string acoustic guitar body shape in the world. While Collings is certainly not the only company to build them, we bring a new tonal clarity to the depth and warmth usually associated with such a large, deep-bodied guitar. Although its bass response makes the dreadnought ideal for vocal accompaniment, Collings versions are also often employed

by bluegrass flatpickers who must compete with inherently louder instruments such as banjos and fiddles. The wide range of woods and neck sizes offered allow dreadnought fans to find a Collings model ideally suited to their playing style and tonal preference. Pair all of that with a torrefied top you make for one of the best guitars I have ever played. This D1 is one of the lightest D1’s I have ever held. Simply Amazing!!!
