AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
D1T-A-SB
Available at Acoustic Centre Melbourne
The Collings D1 A T SB Traditional is a masterclass in vintage-inspired dreadnought design, blending the time-honored tone of Adirondack spruce and Honduran mahogany with modern playability. This model from Collings' esteemed Traditional Series features a stunning dark sunburst finish under an ultra-thin nitrocellulose lacquer that maximizes resonance and showcases the guitar’s refined aesthetic. With a custom pre-war scalloped X-brace and no tongue brace, it delivers a remarkably open, “broken-in” tone with a powerful low end and rounded trebles.
True to its name, the D1 A T SB Traditional offers a more organic feel thanks to its redesigned Traditional neck carve, mortise and tenon hybrid neck joint, and compound-radius ebony fretboard. Additional touches like the tortoise body binding, MOP inlays, and Waverly nickel tuners elevate both its look and performance. Built with an obsessive attention to detail and premium tonewoods, this guitar is equally suited for flatpickers, singer-songwriters, and serious collectors looking for vintage character without compromise.
