Notify me when this product is available:

New Collings D2HG in stock. This one features the 1 3/4" nut width and the upgraded German spruce top. Also includes 42 Snowflake fretboard inlays and "Rope" top purfling.

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, they 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 flatpickers who must compete with inherently louder instruments such as banjos and fiddles.
