Our 2005 Collings D3HBaaA is a smooth operator, and comes sporting premium Brazilian Rosewood (no longer an option on Collings) and Adirondack Spruce up top. Herringbone trim pairs up with Ivoroid bindings, gold Waverly tuners, and a modified V Honduran Mahogany neck that feels smooth and intimate in hand. The backstrip is a gorgeous multicolored chevron pattern, and sets off the dramatic Brazilian Rosewood wavey figure. All wrapped up under a gorgeous, thin, and smooth Nitrocellulose Lacquer finish. The voice has a warmth in the midrange that fills it all out. This is a D3HBaaA that can be dug in to, or played lightly; it’s exceptionally responsive as a flattop, let alone a Dreadnought.
"Here we have a big, strong, high-end Dreadnought from Collings. Brazilian Rosewood and Adirondack Spruce for that classic sound and this is an upgraded D3 with all the beautiful appointments." - Paul Heumiller
