D'Angelico Excel Mini DC Semi Hollowbody in Ebony Black Dog
The D’Angelico Excel Mini DC is a highly playable semi-hollowbody electric guitar with killer tone and eye-popping visuals. The Excel Mini DC’s smaller semi-hollow mahogany 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 Seymour Duncan’s acclaimed ’59 humbuckers, the Excel Mini DC serves up a banquet of tone for every occasion, from jazzy cleans to full shred. Navigating this guitar’s comfortable, fast 3-piece "C"-shaped neck is effortless, as your fingers dance on the smooth-as-glass ebony fingerboard. The Excel Mini DC boasts high-end aesthetic touches such as mother-of-pearl/abalone Split Block fingerboard inlays, multi-ply binding, a Scalini pickguard, and elegant gold hardware. If you’re on the hunt for a cross-genre do-it-all semi that will ace any live gig or studio session, the D’Angelico Excel Mini DC deserves your serious consideration.
Reduced-size body, fast 3-piece neck, and silky fingerboard
Playing the D’Angelico Deluxe Excel Mini DC is sheer joy. It features a reduced-size laminated mahogay body with a solid center block for maximum tone and sustain. Its 3-piece maple/walnut neck boasts a comfortable "C" profile, and its satin finish supplies the perfect blend of grip and ease of movement. Its 16-inch-radius fingerboard features 22 medium-jumbo frets. This silky smooth ebony fretboard enables comfortable chording while facilitating technically demanding leads. The instrument’s easy hand feel is a byproduct of its 24.75-inch scale length, which makes bends and vibrato feel effortless, while its double cutaway body shape gives you optimized high-register access. For rock-solid tuning stability, the Excel Mini DC is equipped with Grover Super Rotomatic tuners, while a GraphTech TUSQ nut bolsters sustain and eliminates string binding.
Seymour Duncan ’59 pickups serve up Holy Grail tone
The D’Angelico Excel Mini DC comes loaded with a set of Seymour Duncan ’59 humbuckers. The ’59 is Duncan’s take on the legendary Seth Lover PAF (Patent Applied For) humbucker. This vintage-inspired pickup is a great all-rounder that delivers warm, full-bodied humbucking tone with crystalline clarity. This potent sonic elixir is routed through a 3-way toggle switch and per-pickup volume and tone controls. For maximum tonal versatility, the tone pots are push/pull, giving you access to a range of snappy single-coil sounds. From jazz and fusion to blues, rock, and country; from chimey rhythm parts to blistering leads — and everything in between — the D’Angelico Excel Mini DC delivers.
