2005 Collings Guitars D3 - Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar
Here's a big, strong sounded D3 from Bill Collings and company. This one is from 2005 and has clearly been played enought to really open up the Adirondack top. This one really sings. The playability is great and this one is a true cannon of a guitar. The trebles sing out when you play leads and the chords fill the room. Your G riffs never sounded so good....

Player Reviews:
"This puppy is wide open. I love the sound of played-in Adirondack on a Dread and this one has it in spades. If you are a picker looking for a big, open sounding axe, don't hesitate on this one..." - Paul Heumiller
"A great Dread with that classic Rosewood and Adirondack voice. This one is very strong and lots of fun to play." - Al Petteway
