Hmm, first time I've ever read anyone commenting that the Collings standard mod-v neck to be a 'baseball bat.' The standard Collings neck is closest to the Martin MLO/PA for reference.
I wonder if the D1 you tried had a VN (Vintage Now) or even a V (Vintage) neck profile, which would also come with wider 2 5/16 or 2 3/8 string spacing?
