Bold Tone, Ergonomic Body
An undersized 14-inch-wide body paired with a compact headstock design makes the Excel Mini DC lightweight and exceptionally comfortable for players of every stripe.

USA Seymour Duncan with Coil Splitting
Featuring our long-standing favorite pairing of Seymour Duncan humbuckers—a 59 in the neck position and an SH-4 in the bridge position. This set provides savory and articulate tone, plus coil-splitting push/pull tone knobs allow for single-coil sparkle while still retaining output volume.

Classic D’Angelico aesthetics and signature details.
A focus on clean lines, smart textures and Art Deco flourishes imbues each instrument with the warmth and sleekness of New York City music history.
