This Collings model is named after the well-loved Walnut Valley Festival in Winfield, Kansas. The Collings Winfield is a highly modified version of the standard dreadnought that features options commonly requested by flatpicking specialists. The combination of the stiff Adirondack spruce top with an enlarged soundhole, supported by a top bracing pattern based on the earliest 14-fret dreadnoughts, make the CW a bluegrass powerhouse. Everything about this model is designed to provide plenty of headroom and projection for aggressive playing, but not at the expense of good tone.
