Collings D2 A Hill Country- Brazilian Rosewood
Collings's Hill Country series introduces an acoustic option that has been pushed to the far end of the tonal spectrum with a strong fundamental voice that is both warm and woody. These guitars have a dry character and full low end that bluegrass players, in particular, will find familiar and right at home in any jam, although their responsiveness and warmth make them highly versatile and appealing for a wide range of styles.
This one in particular has a set of beautiful Brazilian Rosewood, which is Collings first time putting such extravagant wood on a Hill Country. You'll notice that this Rosewood is incredibly even tonally, giving it that true quality Brazilian sound! The neck shape having the small carve allows for incredible playability! This was also paired with a drop in saddle for the playing musician.
