The Premier DC strikes the balance between classic D'Angelico design and contemporary performance. Combining unique D'Angelico design with a classic, familiar semi-hollow config, it's a workhorse instrument that'll never fail to turn heads.

As the name suggests, the DC is a curvy double-cut semi-hollow that offers solid humbucking tones. The body material is Laminate Maple, offering up plenty of top-end brightness to contrast with the warm semi-hollow sound. Multi-ply cream binding rounds it off with a touch of class. The Maple neck continues the theme, laying on yet more top-end sparkle. Combined with the semi-hollow configuration and HH pickup setup, you get a warm, clear and versatile sound that’ll suit anything from hard rock to jazz-funk.

As mentioned before, twin Duncan-designed HB humbuckers deliver a warm but gutsy snarl, but also clean up beautifully and have plenty of tone on tap regardless of style. The hardware is chrome from top to bottom, including Rotomatic Stairstep tuners - it’s an undeniably striking instrument. But everything has a purpose; expect fantastic tuning stability, squeaky-clean intonation and reliability across the board.
