The square-shouldered 14-fret dreadnought is the most popularsteel-string acoustic guitar body shape in the world.While Collings iscertainly not the only company to build them, they bring a new tonalclarity to the depth and warmth usually associated with such a large,deep-bodied guitar. Although its bass response makes the dreadnoughtideal for vocal accompaniment,Collings versions are also oftenemployed by bluegrass flatpickers who must compete with inherentlylouder instruments such as banjos and fiddles.
