Summary: The D’Angelico Excel SS is a highly playable semi-hollowbody electric guitar with amazing tone and gorgeous visuals. The Excel SS’s semi-hollow, single-cutaway body is extremely comfortable and yields a bright, rich, resonant sound with loads of bite and sustain, while a solid center block ensures a feedback-free performance. Equipped with a pair of humbuckers, the Excel SS serves up a banquet of tone for every occasion — from jazzy cleans to full-throttle rock. Navigating this guitar’s fast and comfortable “C”-shaped, 3-piece maple/walnut neck is effortless with its silky-smooth bound ebony fingerboard. The Excel SS boasts high-end aesthetic touches such as mother-of-pearl and abalone Split Block fingerboard inlays, multi-ply binding and Scalini pickguard, and elegant gold hardware. While it may resemble a classic jazz box, the D’Angelico Excel SS is a cross-genre, do-it-all instrument that will ace any live gig or studio session.
