D'Angelico Excel Style B -- Dark Iced Tea Burst

The Style B from D'Angelico Guitars is everything you want from a Jazz box style guitar. This beautiful archtop in Dark Iced Tea finish with gold hardware captures the class and spirit of 1930s NYC jazz scene. S/N and grain patter may vary because we may have more than one in stock.

From D'Angelico:
A faithful replica of John D'Angelico's rhythm-focused archtop. With a 24.75" scale length and only 20 frets, the Style B is easy to wield and offers naturally rich, mellow tone. A redesigned neck shape offers improved handfit and sustain while still prioritizing remarkable comfort. And offered for the first time ever in the standard D'Angelico line, the Style B welcomes back the legendary DeArmond Rhythm Chief pickup, often seen on original D'Angelico's of the late 30s and 40s. Played acoustic, the Style B offers woody, warm tone, and thanks to the transparency of the DeArmond pickup, its amplified sound is much the same. Features include Grover hardware, an Ebony fingerboard, and Jescar fretwire.
