Collings D1 Torrefied Sitka Traditional

Sold

Description

Collings D1-T ("T" for "Traditional"), built with a torrefied Sitka Spruce top, back in stock at TME! The T Series guitars from Collings 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. (Please note--this guitar features the narrower 1 11/16" nut width.) Priced with TKL hard case.
