60 years of the Grateful Dead

In celebration of the 60th Anniversary of the Grateful Dead, D'Angelico's beloved Red, White, and Blue Lightning Bolt custom finish is back. Now available on our most popular semi-hollow, the double-cutaway Premier Grateful Dead DC is a stunning addition to any collection. With a highly playable slim C-shape neck, rosewood fingerboard and medium jumbo frets, players can easily glide through all of their favorite Dead runs and licks with plenty of room for improvisation via versatile D'Angelico humbuckers. And attention to detail through gold hardware, ebony knobs, Stairstep tuners, and a custom Steal Your Face headstock inlay keep the inspiration flowing. Comes in a custom red, white and blue D'Angelico x Grateful Dead gig bag.
