Acoustic Guitar Magazine | 5 years ago
Every guitar collection should include a rosewood dreadnought, and we’re glad that Collings decided to build a special D-41 for Acoustic Guitar magazine. Inspired by pre-war Martins of the same body shape, this guitar features Bill Collings’ typical blend of vintage specs and contemporary precision. The proven combination of East Indian rosewood back and sides, a tight-grained Sitka spruce top, and scalloped bracing makes the Collings D-41 a veritable cannon. Its look is classy but not flashy, with an abalone-bound top, snowflake fingerboard inlays, a Brazilian rosewood headstock overlay, and AG’s anniversary logo inlaid at the first fret.
In planning our 30th anniversary instrument auction, we could think of no better beneficiary than the fund that bears Bill Collings’ name. 50% of every dollar raised in the auction will go directly toward supporting guitar education, and we’ll also donate $5 in the name of every bidder, regardless of the outcomes. Bidding begins April 20. In the meantime, please take a look at the 12 great guitars in this collection, including the custom Collings D41.

The Collings Acoustic Guitar 10th Anniversary model is truly the best of both worlds: classic design elements and tonal characteristics from the past combined with the precise playability and intonation of a modern, state-of-the-art acoustic guitar.
