Collings DS1G 'German Spruce / Hoduran Mahogany' 12-Fret Preowned 2006

The Collings DS1 Slope Shoulder Dreadnought is a re-creation of the original dreadnought design, using the early slope-shoulder, 12-fret neck configuration. In their original form, these instruments were targeted toward Hawaiian-style players, so the tonal output is very smooth, rich, and full. There’s a massive presence with sparkling highs, a full yet not overwhelming bottom end, and luscious midrange.

This incredible 2006 model has been upgraded above and beyond the already impressive standard DS1 with a creamy-white German Spruce top, for extra warmth and tonal depth. The craftsmanship is second-to-none throughout, and the playability is incredible, but the highight is the sound - thick, imperious and rich, with a huge amount of headroom and dynamic range that is just as incredible for light fingerpicking as it is for loud bluegrass licks. The condition is fantastic, with only light playwear and a low and slick action. A fabulous heirloom dreadnought from one of the world's most lauded builders. Includes original hardshell case.
