Product information


The new "Hill Country" series from Collings Guitars picks up where their "Traditional" series began ~ pushing the Collings voice, tone, and aesthetic farther towards the looser, more open rumble associated with the Grail-level pre-war flattops.

Each Hill Country guitar features a new, custom voicing and build structure that aims for the driest, woodiest, most open version of the Collings sound. What will you experience when you pick up a Hill Country model for the first time? You'll feel a lighter-weight guitar. You'll hear an instrument with increased roundness in the midrange and trebles. And you'll feel low-end responsiveness like you've never felt from a Collings before.

This D1A Hill Country features the new, full-thickness HC neck carve, alongside the complete suite of Hill Country appointments (hand-poured pickguard, rosette ring, end graft & heel cap). We love the blank peghead veneer, and the "Collings" logo stamped on the back of the headstock in tribute to the golden-era guitars which inspire the Hill Country line. Bluegrass guitarists seeking the ultimate Collings mahogany dreadnought need look no further. This guitar gets our highest possible marks for thunderousness of tone and ease of response in a new instrument. Priced with hardshell case.
