D'Angelico Excel Style B

Originally drafted in John D'Angelico's notebook in 1936, the Style B is a standout in our archtop collection. A signature "Style B" logo on the pickguard and beautifully detailed headstock design create its classic look, impossible to mistake for another. With a slightly smaller body and neck profile, the Style B is an exceptionally light, well-balanced archtop. It has the scrape and slap of an acoustic but the power and tone variety of an electric hollow-body, largely due to its floating pickup design. Grover Imperial Super-Rotomatic tuners boast an exceptionally smooth turning radius, allowing for supreme tuning accuracy and keeping you in tune longer. No matter the player, no matter the hands, a slim C-shape neck makes for supreme playability free of wrist-ache. The reinforced signature Stairstep tailpiece makes for sturdiness, maximum resonance, comfortable string tension, and is part of D'Angelico's legendary Art-Deco aesthetic. Finish: Black.
