Collings D1 Dreadnought, featuring a solid old growth Sitka Spruce top combined with solid Honduran Mahogany back and sides, Ebony fingerboard, modified V neck profile, with an upgraded 1 3/4" nut width and a standard 25 1/2" scale length. Complete with TKL case.
Decades of natural aging combined with the high quality of these difficult-to-obtain old growth tops have resulted in soundboards that possess a high stiffness-to-weight ratio which provides exceptional warmth, headroom, and resonance. There are also visual features that set them apart from new Sitka Spruce due to the natural aging process: the colour of the wood has a bit of patina, and there are variances found in the growth rings that developed over time as well. The result are soundboards with a bit more "character" than new Sitka tops.
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 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.
