Collings D1 Sunburst Traditional (USED, 2019)

Sale Pending

Description

Pre-owned 2019 Collings D1 Traditional with warm sunburst and lacquer finish, just into the shop on consignment! Collings Traditional series guitars reflect their desire to revive the classic building techniques of the 1930's, integrating them seamlessly with the modern standards of playability and finish work for which Collings sets the bar. This D1-T has the large, rumbling voice we hear in the Collings Traditional guitars, but there's a noticeable mellowness about it as well. The note attack is rounded off and drier sounding -- even more like playing a vintage guitar.

This pre-owned D1-T does bear some signs of prior ownership, but the few notable light cosmetic scratches in the finish and wear on the pickguard do nothing to detract from the tone and playability of this fantastic guitar. Please note: the guitar features the narrower 1 11/16" nut width and 2 3/16" string spacing options. Priced with original TKL hard case from Collings.
