Comments about D'Angelico Premier Series DC Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitar with Stairstep Tailpiece:
This guitar sounds great. Sounds like my old Gibson 335 from the '70s but with a slimmer neck and better playability, great value.
Comments about D'Angelico Premier Series DC Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitar with Stairstep Tailpiece:
The pickup is very Gibson Classic 57. I was impressed with the quick response when you bend or hammer the strings delivering vintage Gibson voice. Made in Indonesia yet the quality is par to USA standards, with a retro head-stock. Very easy to play with comfortable neck, fret-board and string height. The voice is very conservatory jazz and sweet I just keep playing standards at the GC store. I just love the sweet voice when you slide or jazz 7th chord. BTW I was shopping for a 7 string electric... bought the D'Angelico only to evaluate on my Fender Double Reverb 68' then return.... no. This guitar belongs to my home to compliment my Gibson Memphis ES-335 with a Burstbucker I & II. Geez I can't believe I paid $4k for the Gibson after I bought the D'Angelico with a sound so much better than the price.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about D'Angelico Premier Series DC Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitar with Stairstep Tailpiece:
This is guitar is amazing-- just picked one up and it is really easy to play and sounds great both clean and overdriven. A really stable sound that does not feedback easily-- compliments my solid bodies nicely on gigs.

Comments about D'Angelico Premier Series DC Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitar with Stairstep Tailpiece:
I use this guitar in small areas usually but only because I have a smaller amp. This instrument has the sound and feel of a '67 Gibson 335. I played this guitar in the store for a hour and a half or two and finally left it, but I hated myself for it and got it the next day. This guitar us goid fir moderate to advanced players because they know how much of a quality instrument this is and it has no boundaries. This will be in my collection for the rest of my days. I would recommend getting it set up at the store first though.
Pros
- Good Feel
Cons
- Poor Pick Up
- The pick up switch is loose

Comments about D'Angelico Premier Series DC Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitar with Stairstep Tailpiece:
It's a good guitar for the money and it looks great! The electronics are ok The PU's selector is loose in the center position, and it appears that they are all like that as I have returned the fist one and received the new one with the same issue. Can't really hear a lot of difference between Neck PU and Both PU's when selecting both at center position
Overall for the price it's a very nice guitar looks good and plays well.
Only had it for a short while.
