The flagship archtop from D’Angelico is now available in the Premier Series. Offering warm and woody jazz tones by way of a custom floating mini-humbucker and 17-inch-wide body design, the Premier EXL-1 is a standout in its class. A slim C-shape neck, medium vintage fretwire and comfortable 1 and 11/16″ nut width guarantees remarkable comfort for young jazzers and seasoned vets alike. Featuring classic Art Deco aesthetic flourishes reminiscent of old New York, the Premier EXL-1 is a beacon of D’Angelico guitars. Now available in Gloss Honey Blonde and Brown Burst.
Timeless Design
Based on John DAngelicos original single-cutaway design, the Premier EXL-1s body shape makes use of the legendary archtop blueprint while offering modern comfort.
Warm and Woody Tone
A single floating mini-humbucker highlights the EXL-1s naturally sweet mid-range and warm acoustic edge.
Vintage Elegance
Offering signature DAngelico details such as its Stairstep tailpiece and iconic traditional headstock, the Premier EXL-1 offers remarkable sustain and rich harmonic overtones.
