Collings Acoustic Guitars - D1 VN

This new Collings Guitars - D1 VN is a responsive sounding dreadnought with a few custom features. Here with a Sitka Spruce top, and Mahogany back and sides, both of which are absolutely gorgeous sets of wood, this D1 sports that big, dynamic Collings sounds that we love. It's been constructed without a tongue brace, reminiscent of our favorite vintage guitars, allowing the top to move that much more freely. The neck has also been upgraded to the Collings "Vintage Now" spec, which delivers a comfortable 1 3/4" nut width and 2 5/16" string spacing, making it great for flatpicking fiddle tunes, or strumming out Country Western tunes.

A fantastic example of a 14-fret dreadnought, this D1 VN includes a free setup from our team of luthiers and a Collings TKL hardshell case.

Our Thoughts

This guitar brings me so much joy. My first "nice" guitar was a Collings D1 VN and this one is taking me down memory lane - and then some! It's powerful and resonate right out of the case. The top is gorgeous, without a hint of runout/chatoyance. Every once in a while we get in a guitar like this that just excels from the first strum and this D1 is absolutely one of those great guitars from Collings.
