Guitar Featured:
1949 Excel – John began working on a single cutaway design in the late 40’s and it quickly became the standard for archtops going forward. What’s unique about this model is its bird’s eye maple back and sides as opposed to the more common pearl maple. The Excel also features a model 1 11/16" nut width and slim C-shape neck, similar to D’Angelico models today.
