(NEW) If ever there was a kitchen sink dreadnought from Collings that was built to impress, it's this beautiful Traditional model that they brought to NAMM 2026. Baked (torrefied) Adirondack top has a way of being the loudest thing in every room, with just enough vintage vibe to take the edge off. The Traditional models were a big shake-up for Collings, taking their highly respected formula and warming it up some, they have been among our favorites, year after year. This one has Indian rosewood for the back and sides and a sunburst good enough to bring tears of joy!
How do the Traditionals differ from the standard lineup? They have their own ever-so-slightly beefier neck profile, rolled fingerboard edges for comfort, forward-shifted scalloped Sitka braces with no tongue brace, small maple bridge plate and a pure nitro finish. 1 3/4" nut, 2 5/16" string spacing at the cut-through saddle, herringbone top trim (Traditional variant) and Waverly tuners complete the package.
This is one of those "how could it be any better?" dreads in every way. It has the stuff, all of it. Includes hard case.
