The D'Angelico Excel SS XT Vintage Natural Quilt pairs Art Deco elegance with semi-hollow mastery. Its 15-inch single-cut body showcases a laminated quilted maple top with matching maple back and sides, all anchored by a solid centerblock for richer sustain and controlled feedback on loud stages. Gold hardware underscores the classic look, with a precise Tune-o-Matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece completing the vintage-meets-modern presentation.
A matched set of USA Seymour Duncan '59 humbuckers (gold covers) delivers a wide palette—from airy, articulate cleans and refined jazz comping to velvety blues leads and open, vintage rock crunch. The '59’s balanced output and clear top end reward touch dynamics, while the centerblock keeps things tight when you nudge into higher gain. A classic 3-way toggle plus dedicated volume and tone controls let you shape both pickups with familiar, no-nonsense authority.
Playability is dialed for the contemporary player: a 25-inch scale adds snap and definition without sacrificing warmth; the slim C-profile neck and 16-inch-radius rosewood fingerboard make chordal stretches and fluid bends equally effortless. Premium Jescar 47104 fretwire offers smooth, durable fretwork, while the 1 11/16-inch TUSQ nut and three-piece neck provide solid tuning stability and a confident feel. At 1.75 inches deep, the body sits comfortably against you, offering an immediately responsive acoustic resonance before you even plug in.
From articulate cleans to vintage-flavored crunch, the Excel SS XT is a classy, stage-ready semi-hollow that captures D'Angelico’s storied aesthetic while expanding its sonic reach. Max Guitar techs have checked setup and electronics.
