Used (2023) Collings D1 Sitka Spruce/Mahogany Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar with Hardshell Case
A Used (2023) Collings D1 dreadnought acoustic guitar with original hardshell case and paperwork. This guitar is in great shape and shows no signs of playwear.
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.
