About This Listing

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, they bring a 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.

This is a tried and true grand ole’ D1, just like Bill Collings designed it. Sitka Spruce top and braces with Honduran Mahogany back, sides and neck, along with the upgraded classy and vintage  western shaded top. Other features include Ebony fretboard and bridge, tortoise body bindings, Ebony headstock overlay, Nickel Waverly tuners, Pearl dot inlays and logo, Ebony pins with Pearl dots, multi-stripe top purfling and more.

Includes hardshell case and Lifetime Warranty.
