Collings / DS2H / 2012 / Natural / Guitar For Sale
|
Hand made by Collings in Texas, the DS2H is the original 12 fret dreadnought shape, that was first an oversized Hawaiian guitar over a century ago. It has a Sitka Spruce top and Indian Rosewood back and sides, with scallop bracing, a slot headstock, and features an Ebony fretboard and bridge, plus Waverley tuners. Tonally it’s fantastic, the longer body with bridge closer to the soundhole, gives a more open tone with an airy bass, not found on a 14 fret model. The Rosewood back and sides give a real dynamism to the tone, while the Spruce top allows the sound to cut through any mix. The herringbone trim and Abalone fingerboard inlays add a touch of class, as well as a nod to the prewar era. All in all it’s a powerhouse of a guitar, in very good condition, and is a joy to play. It has a Fishman Ellipse Blend pickup system fitted, and comes in it’s original deluxe hard case.
Glenns Guitars, UK 
Welcome to Glenn's Guitars here on Vintage & Rare. After many years in the industry, and having been fortunate enough to have worked in Hanks and The Acoustic Centre - probably London's two foremost acoustic guitar shops - I decided to do my own thing.
I have a passion for used and vintage acoustic guitars; nearly new second hand guitars because they can represent a bargain compared to the price of a new guitar, older and vintage guitars because they tend to have more character and can often become an investment.
You will notice when viewing my stock list my taste in guitars, as I only sell guitars that I genuinely like - and there are certain brands noticeable by their absence. I am a huge fan of older Gibson, Martin and Guild acoustics, but also more boutique brands such as Lowden and Collings.
I will consider part exchange if it makes your desired guitar a little easier to afford. I also offer a guitar finding service, if there's something specific you're looking for.
If you are happy to buy over the internet, I will send you as many high resolution photos and as much information about the guitar you're interested in as I can. If you can get to me - I'm based in Enfield, only 30 minutes from London Liverpool Street Station - you can always make an appointment with me and come and try some of the guitars out first.
I accept payment by Paypal, bank transfer, cheque and of course cash.
