FT/Collings D2H..

$ongWriter · #1 11-08-2013, 10:57 AM

Ok..here's the deal. I got a great Collings D2H..but, as you can see by my sig I'm a Bourgeois kinda guy..and I'm rosewood dred heavy right now..not that that's a bad thing. I'm in need of a Bourgois Country Boy Deluxe or maybe even a Slope D..or a banjo killer!!...Nothing wrong with this Collings!!..I'm amazed at how loud it is for a sitka topped guitar..and if I don't trade my life will still be good..I've only had the Collings for 1 week or so and I believe in a month I'll decide to keep it..but, I've been wanting a mahog/adi Bourgois for years...so, this is my best chance at getting one. Right now I'm not in love with the Collings..(hey, it took me 6 months to fall in love with my Vintage D...I'm not a one night stand kind a guy)..So, if you want a great rs/sitka guitar this is IT!!!..2nd to none..I'll put a trade value of $3000 on it..The only guitars I "think" I would trade for would be a Bourgeois Country Boy Deluxe, Bourgeois Slope D, (adi top's only..I think)...or a Banjo Killer..(they don't have adi tops but who cares!!)..if you got this or anything close and you are interested let me know..thanks for reading!!!!..

I just measured..but all I got is a yard stick. Looks like 1&3/4.

I then measured my Martin and it's a little (1/16) smaller. Not sure what
standard Collings are...on one site it looks like their standard is 1&11/16.
Maybe someone can help with that..???

Standard Collings D2H is 1 11/16. They also offer an option for 1 3/4.

Still looking for a Country Boy Deluxe...if anyone's got one!!!..let's talk!

Well..I'm on the fence...I took off the old strings and put on a set of medium Elixir phos/bronze..and holy cow!!!...this is a cannon!!!! I can't imagine one of these with an adi top...it doesn't need it. Why would anyone trade a guitar like this....but, for right now if someone has a Bourgeois Country Boy Deluxe I think I would...I think.....maybe...don't know....
