Features a hand-rubbed Varnish finish, 1 3\/4\" nut, \"Vintage Now\" neck and bridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e The square-shouldered 14-fret dreadnought is the most popular steel-string acoustic guitar body shape in the world. While Collings is certainly not the only company to build them, we bring a new tonal clarity to the depth and warmth usually associated with such a large, deep-bodied guitar. Although its bass response makes the dreadnought ideal for vocal\u003cbr\u003e accompaniment, Collings versions are also often employed by bluegrass flatpickers who must compete with inherently louder instruments such as banjos and fiddles. The wide range of woods and neck sizes offered allow dreadnought fans to find a Collings model ideally suited to their playing style and tonal preference.\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe \"Vintage Now\" has slightly wider spacing at the saddle (2 5\/16\") with 1 3\/4\" at the nut. This neck is slightly larger than the standard (non-vintage) profile, but is not quite as large as some of the chunkiest vintage Martin necks. This neck has more of a vintage feel, but is more palatable than the standard Vintage neck (see below) to a lot of players. The neck shape is slightly rounder (less V) in the lower position and moves towards a modified V shape as you go up the neck. The neck depth (including the fingerboard) is typically .845\" at the 1st fret and .960\" at the 9th fret. The fingerboard width measures 2.195\" at the 12th fret.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop Adirondack spruce\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack \u0026amp; Sides Honduran mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Honduran mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Binding Tortoise with b\/w\/b\/w top purfling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard Binding None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeghead Binding None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge Ebony belly-style with 2 3\/16\" spacing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard Ebony with MOP long dots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge Pins\/End Pin Ebony with MOP dot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut Bone, 1 3\/4\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSaddle Bone, drop-in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Profile Vintage Now\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeghead Profile Tapered square\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Joint Mortise \u0026amp; tenon hybrid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTruss Rod Fully adjustable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrets Medium 18% nickel-silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeghead Veneer Ebony with MOP Collings logo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuners Nickel Waverly (16:1 ratio)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBackstrip 1-style (Walnut)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRosette b\/w Purfling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale Length 25 1\/2\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrace Material Sitka spruce\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrace Pattern Pre-war scalloped X-brace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard Radius 14\" - 26\" compound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Finish Varnish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Finish Varnish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickguard Tortoise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrings D'Addario EJ-17 (.013\"- .056\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCase Deluxe hardshell case by TKL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Reemes Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53838848590143,"sku":"RMC-MUS-G53764671","price":3737.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/7535\/9039\/files\/28204-4sm.jpg?v=1782094804","url":"https:\/\/www.reemesmusic.com\/products\/collings-d1a-varnish-204","provider":"Reemes Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
