{"product_id":"collings-d2h-a-traditional-new-16857","title":"Collings D2H A Traditional - New","description":"The D2H is the flagship of the Collings line and the model that first brought Bill Collings to the attention of the guitar world. Inspired by the classic herringbone-trimmed guitars of the 1930s, the D2H has a rich, powerful tone with a deep, mellow bass and strong, clear trebles. The standard D2H is a great sound guitar and in the Traditional configuration and an Adirondack spruce top, it's even better.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eAbout the Collings Traditional Series\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eThe secret behind the great tone of the Traditional Series isn’t really much of secret. The trick is that Collings has revived some of the more labor intensive techniques that builders used back in the 1930s and 1940s, the decade we consider the Golden Era of American guitar making.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eThe Collings Traditional Series of guitars differ from their standard models in a numbers of ways. One of the most important changes include the use of lighter, stiffer wood in the tops and bracing; a thinner all-nitrocellulose lacquer finish with no UV-cure filler or undercoats; no flat brace (sometimes called “tongue brace”) under the end of the fingerboard; and bridges with a through-cut saddle. The neck shapes also have more rounded fingerboard edges and a vintage-inspired profile and taper. While these guitars are not \"distressed\" or artificially worn to make them appear like an older instrument, both the sound and the feel of these Traditional Series Collings models achieve a more \"broken-in\" impression for the player, and the listener.","brand":"Collings Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43838747410631,"sku":"COLD2HAT-34388","price":7675.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0503\/4947\/3991\/files\/1701401.jpg?v=1781776101","url":"https:\/\/www.gryphonstrings.com\/products\/collings-d2h-a-traditional-new-16857","provider":"Gryphon Strings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
