Guitar Gallery is a premium guitar store in South Africa and we have this beautiful pre-owned Collings D2HG (2003) in stock.
The images below are not of the actual guitar but can be provided of the actual guitar. This guitar is in excellent condition with the original hard case. A full inspection and setup was performed by Casimi guitars in Cape Town.
The square-shouldered 14-fret dreadnought is the most popular steel-string acoustic guitar body shape in the world. While Collings is far from the only company to build them, we bring a new tonal clarity to the depth and warmth usually associated with such a large, deep-bodied instrument. 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. The wide range of woods and neck sizes offered allow dreadnought fans to find a Collings model ideally suited to their playing style and tonal preference.
