D'Angelico

Description

The D'Angelico Excel DC XT limited-edition semi-hollow electric guitar offers unique upgrades to the standard Excel DC. With a throwback scroll-style headstock and a decadent quilted maple top, the Excel DC XT features deep, comfortable cutaways and a slim C-shaped neck profile for comfortable playability along the entire rosewood fingerboard. A pair of Seymour Duncan '59 humbuckers provide an impressive tonal range from vintage-voiced warmth to glassy high-end, while a center block removes feedback at high volumes. Additional features include vintage-style Grover Imperial tuners.

    What can I say, picked this up on sale for a decent price and it has quickly become my favorite guitar. No way I would have picked this up at full retail, but this GC exclusive color, on sale, is a no Brainer. Works well for blues, rock, jazz; pretty much anything. Truly a beautiful guitar with the XT upgrades. This guitar has some slight nosedive; nothing that a 4" leather strap can't remedy though.

    Overall, a good product with design and manufacturing. D'Angelico guitars have standard tuners and Guitar Center's product webpage is wrong. Guitar Center seems not to care about this. I am curious whether this review will be posted, as none have appeared yet.
