D'Angelico

Description

D’Angelico's flagship archtop returns in the all-new Premier Series. Crafted from John D’Angelico’s original design, the Premier EXL-1's balanced, organic tone recalls the sound of a classic New York jazz box. Couple that with signature D'Angelico features in the Stairstep tailpiece, Skyscraper truss rod cover, and iconic headstock, the EXL-1 embodies elegance. Its single floating mini-humbucker highlights its naturally punchy mids and warm acoustic edge. Designed for jazz players worldwide, the Premier EXL-1 is a staple.

    I've never been much of a jazz player, but my D'Angelico sounds beautiful not only for Jazz but any style of playing as well. I love the Seymour Duncan mini floating pickup. this guitar is full of warm rich tone, and has wonderful playability across the fingerboard. it sounds great both plugged in and acoustic and makes for an awesome addition to my collection.

  • Better than expected
