Old-school design with custom Seymour Duncan P90 pickups.
The D'Angelico Excel 59 is an old-school gem and modern spin on a John D'Angelico original designed in 1959. The 59's 16" wide, 1.75" deep, fully hollow body paired with an ebony fingerboard offers woody tone and crisp articulation. It features custom Seymour Duncan Great Dane P90s, exclusive to D'Angelico, offering a massive range of tones, from warm and wooly to big and brash. All paired with vintage-inspired details like a chickenhead selector and cupcake knobs, the 59 feels timeless. Available in Vintage Natural, Viola and Black Dog with a D'Angelico Shield Tremolo.
