Single-Cutaway Sweetness

The Premier SS embodies the elegance of the D'Angelico name in both looks and tone. Featuring custom humbuckers voiced to suit its 15-inch-wide semi-hollow body, the SS offers a warm, vivid tone that ranges effortlessly from sweet cleans to warm grit. A supremely comfortable slim C-neck shape welcomes both new and seasoned players, while a lightweight center block keeps feedback at bay and aids in sustainability. Its single-cutaway body design strikes the balance between archtop elegance and modern semi-hollow versatility. Four ebony knobs allow for fine-tuned tone-tailoring. Now available in Burnt Red.

Built For Versatility

A curvaceous and compact single-cutaway semi-hollow with a full-sized yet lightweight center block, the SS is D’Angelico’s preeminent semi-hollow design.

Warm, Full-Bodied Tone

Custom-voiced Supro Bolt Buckers and D’Angelico Humbuckers tailored specifically for the DC provide bold, vintage-inspired clarity with extra warmth in the mid-range on both clean and saturated tones.

Quality Components

Robust hardware, tuning machines with a 14:1 gear ratio, and custom ebony knobs contribute a premium feel and trustworthy quality.

Classic D’Angelico Aesthetic

Several years after its debut, the Premier Series now features classic D’Angelico aesthetics and signature details. A focus on clean lines, smart textures, and Art Deco flourishes imbues each instrument with the warmth and sleekness of New York City music history.
