An immaculate example of D'Angelico's superb D'Angelico Premier EXL-1 Hollowbody Electric Guitar in Fiesta Red with it's original gig bag.
Key Features
- Hollowbody Construction — Yields a balanced and organic tone with stellar resonance; enhanced by the bright-sounding laminated Maple/Spruce tonewoods.
- Single Cutaway Body Design — Provides generous access to the higher register; perfect for throwing in silky-smooth lead lines.
- Multi-Piece Maple Neck — Layered, 3-piece construction adds rigidity and ensures exceptional tuning stability.
- Medium Jumbo Frets — Offer a controllable feel for wide vibrato and pitch-perfect string bends.
- Seymour Duncan Designed Pickup — Neck-mounted, floating mini-humbucker highlights the instrument's naturally punchy mids and warm acoustic edge.
- Included Gig Bag — Perfectly protects the Premier EXL-1 against knocks on the road!
Body & Neck
The EXL-1’s curvy single-cut body employs Laminated Flamed Maple back/sides and a Laminated Spruce top. This provides plenty of top-end clarity to counter the hollow-body warmth, with a pinch of acoustic-esque resonance for good measure.
The multi-piece neck employs 3 strips of solid Maple. This adds yet more mid-range/top-end brightness to the woolly humbucker sound, great for bringing out your jazz leads and rhythmic comping.
Hardware & Electronics
A single Duncan-designed floating mini-humbucker sits in the neck position, just like the archtop designs of old. This classy-style pickup ensures a bold, dynamic response that perfectly complements the tonewood combination.
The hardware is chrome from top to bottom, including elegant Grover 109 Super Rotomatic tuners — it’s an undeniably striking instrument! But everything has a purpose. Expect fantastic tuning stability, squeaky-clean intonation and rock-solid reliability across the board.
