Presenting the Collings D2H T, their classic Rosewood Dreadnought featuring their "Traditional" Package of specs and appointments.
Collings's Traditional Series or "T-Series” guitars represent an exciting vintage-inspired tonal variation on the distinctive Collings sound, designed and crafted to showcase the most desirable characteristics present in coveted pre-war instruments.
The Bracing and tone woods are adjusted for weight and thickness to create a voicing characterized by warm, rounded highs and a present low midrange, while retaining a quick attack and strong projection.
Traditional Voicing: Each T-Series guitar features hand-selected tone woods that are voiced to facilitate the warm rounded highs and present low mids that characterize the tonality our Traditional Series.
Traditional Construction: T-Series guitars are constructed of all solid woods that are acquired, acclimated, and meticulously hand selected by master luthiers here at our shop.
Playability: A combination of exacting PLEK machine leveling and hand fret dressing ensures consistently excellent playability and a silky fret feel.
Ultra Thin Finish: The T-Series Nitrocellulose lacquer finish is sanded to an even thinner thickness than Collings's standard instruments, allowing the natural qualities of the wood to shine.
Precision Tuning: Premium Waverly open-gear tuners offer exceptional tuning stability and smooth reliable operation with a vintage aesthetic.
Vintage Appointments: Featuring an amber lacquer toner with unique wood purflings, rosettes and bridge pins, the Traditional series have classic appointments to match their distinctive tone.
Neck Profile: Collings's new Traditional neck profile is based on their existing Vintage Now dimensions but adds a more distinct neck taper and rounded fingerboard edges for a played-in feel.
