Here is the perfect Collings D1A acoustic guitar for a player. This guitar is owned by David Doucet, the guitarist for the legendary Cajun band Beausoleil! This guitar has traveled and been played all over the world. The Adirondack spruce top has been broken in fantastically from all of that playing and is big, rich, and bold! Yes, there are scratches and some dings on the guitar from all of its work, but there are no cracks and it has been refretted fairly recently so there is minimal fret wear.
This is a guitar that you can take out and play without worrying about getting that first scratch or ding on it. Bring it to a bluegrass festival jam and you will be heard!
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.
