Stemming from the deepest roots of the brand's rich history, D'Angelico is proud to introduce the Excel 16—an all-new 16-inch-wide archtop offering undeniably punchy, woody and sweet tone that immediately recalls classic New York City jazz. A happy medium for traditional jazz players looking for an instrument that is easier to wield than its larger counterparts, the Excel 16 has a slightly shallower body depth at 2.75" but still yields all the full-bodied warmth one desires from an archtop. A 12-inch fingerboard radius and slightly thicker C-shape neck create remarkable comfort—equal parts hefty and fast-playing. The Excel 16's acoustic resonance is complemented by either a Seymour Duncan Johnny Smith Floating Mini Humbucker that maximizes top sustain or a Seymour Duncan '59 Humbucker, for those in pursuit of bold and balanced tones that can more easily cut through in a larger band setting. Available in Amber
