The square-shouldered 14-fret dreadnought is the most popular steel-string acoustic guitar body shape in the world. Collings has been making their hand-voiced version of this classic since nearly the beginning.
This single-owner 1993 D3, serial # 970, originally shipped from the Collings factory in September of 1993. For a guitar that is nearing 30 years old, it's in remarkable condition, with relatively minor play wear and fewer dings and dents in the finish than one would expect of a guitar of this age. Includes the original deluxe TKL hard shell case.
