2019 Collings D1 w/Baked Sitka top and 1 3/4" nut SOLD
For sale is my 2019 Collings D1. Custom features are a baked Sitka top and 1 3/4" nut, all other features are standard D1. Aside from one small impression in the top, the guitar is mint. Frets are in excellent shape with minimal wear, action is right at 6/64" and 4/64" at the 12th fret with minimal relief and a tall saddle. Playability is exceptional.
I will say that if you haven't played a Collings with a baked Sitka top, you're missing out. I think the warmth of baked Sitka combined with the Collings "voice" makes an absolutely stellar combination. I look at this guitar as a more refined version of a D-18, and the craftsmanship is second to none. Not really dying to sell this as it's one of my favorite dreads, but my D-MA gets most of the playing time lately. AGF price is SOLD Link to Imgur album with photos: https://imgur.com/a/nWwpBDD Specs from Collings: Top Baked Sitka spruce Back & Sides Honduran mahogany Neck Honduran mahogany Body Binding Tortoise with b/w/b/w top purfling Fingerboard Binding None Peghead Binding None Bridge Ebony belly-style with 2 3/16" spacing Fingerboard Ebony with MOP long dots Bridge Pins/End Pin Ebony with MOP dot Nut Bone, 1 3/4" Saddle Bone, drop-in Neck Profile Modified V Peghead Profile Tapered square Neck Joint Mortise & tenon hybrid Truss Rod Fully adjustable Frets Medium 18% nickel-silver Peghead Veneer Ebony with MOP Collings logo Tuners Nickel Waverly (16:1 ratio) Backstrip 1-style (Walnut) Rosette b/w Purfling Scale Length 25 1/2" Brace Material Sitka spruce Brace Pattern Pre-war scalloped X-brace Fingerboard Radius 14" - 26" compound Body Finish High gloss nitrocellulose lacquer Neck Finish High gloss polyester resin Pickguard Tortoise Strings D'Addario EJ-17 (.013"- .056") Case Deluxe hardshell case by TKL

Gorgeous guitar! I just bought my first Collings (see sig) and love it. I’ve had a D-18 and the Collings is in a whole different league. GLWTS!
