Collings / D2HA / 2002 / Natural / Guitar

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 flat pickers 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.

On the back of the guitar the lacquer finish has sunken into the wood pores giving it a somewhat grainy appearance.  This in no way affects the playability or tone quality.  

"This guitar is a cannon!"

Recently setup with Sant Cruz low tension strings.  Near zero play wear.
