1998 Collings D1AV – £3499

May 13, 2026 | Others

NEW ARRIVAL   The Collings D1AV is extraordinarily loud. The Adirondack Spruce top favours a strong pick attack and provides the ample headroom and power needed to cut through bluegrass ensembles. The Mahogany back and sides keep your lead lines clear and distinct. Volume aside, this guitar is also incredibly balanced in its frequency response. Notes are rich and full all the way up and down the neck. The midrange and high-end sparkle will cut through any studio or on-stage mix with ease. The lows are balanced, defined, well rounded, and never boomy. The guitar is in good condition, with a few nicks and dings, and a repaired top crack. The neck has a very comfortable soft V profile, with easy playing action. The 28 years of play have really opened the tone up, and it sounds far more mature than its years would suggest. It’s a truly exceptional instrument. The guitar has a K and K pickup fitted, and comes in its original deluxe hard case.
