A 17 inch non-cutaway archtop with a floating Seymour Duncan Johnny Smith mini-humbucker. Built for jazz tone at its most classic.
The D'Angelico Excel Style B Throwback revives the New York archtop tradition the name was built on. A 17 inch non-cutaway hollow body, 2.8 inches deep, in laminated spruce over flame maple, with the Throwback F-holes, stairstep tailpiece and scroll headstock that make a D'Angelico recognisable across a room.
The USA Seymour Duncan Johnny Smith floating mini-humbucker sits off the top rather than set into it, so the guitar's acoustic voice comes through the pickup instead of being replaced by it. One volume, one tone, and a warm woody tone that sits perfectly in a jazz trio or behind a vocalist.
Three-piece set-thru neck with a C profile, bound ebony fingerboard with full block inlays, 24.75 inch scale, 1 and 11/16 inch bone nut, gold hardware and Grover Super Rotomatics. Strung with flatwound 12s.
