Description
D’Angelico have impressed us with this New D’Angelico Excel 16 Archtop Electric Guitar In Amaretto Burst in Guitars, it’s in stock, and ready to ship with fast, reliable delivery across the UK, Ireland, and Europe.

The Excel 16 is a sleek, 16-inch single cutaway jazz box offered as a smaller alternative to the company’s iconic top-seller, the EXL-1 – and is designed with the gigging musician in mind. Stemming from the deepest roots of the brand’s rich history, the Excel 16 delivers undeniably punchy, woody and sweet tone that immediately recalls classic New York City jazz.
Premium feel
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.
Classic tone
Strapped with a Seymour Duncan full-sized 59 humbucker, enjoy classic and resonant archtop tone, with warm, woody low end and articulate mids. This makes the Excel 16 ideal for those in pursuit of bold and balanced tones that can more easily cut through in a larger band setting.
