Freshly set up in-house by our esteemed Guitar Tech who tells us that this particular instrument is one of the strongest guitars we've gotten from Collings and that is saying a lot. A true Banjo Killer. Just sayin'. See below for more details and specifications.
FROM COLLINGS:
The square-shouldered 14-fret dreadnought is the most popular steel-string acoustic guitar body shape in the world. While Collings is far from 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 instrument. 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.
