Limited-edition Specs and Sublime Playability

Feast your eyes on one of D’Angelico’s pride and joy guitars: the Deluxe DC Semi-Hollowbody. This striking guitar comes equipped with components previously only reserved for D’Angelico’s limited-edition lines, promising you'll arrive to the gig in grand style. Whether you’re a rhythm or a lead guitarist, the Deluxe DC has something for everyone. Feast your ears on the Seymour Duncan Seth Lover A4 humbuckers combined with coil-splitting capabilities, and you’ll revel in a myriad of tone possibilities. With the incredible build quality, unique design, and durable set neck, the Deluxe DC Semi-Hollowbody is poised to not only become your new No. 1 guitar, but your next family heirloom.

Seymour Duncan pickups go the tonal distance

The tone controls offered by the Deluxe DC prove this guitar a master of jazz, rock, country, surf, and beyond. The Seymour Duncan Seth Lover A4 humbuckers offer immediate deep, thunderous tones that can build an impressive wall of rhythm. Then you can explore the 3-way toggle switch and volume and tone controls to shuffle your sounds to the single-coil realm. Now you’re ready to capture bright, crisp solos and leads that really bite. Combine these tonal capabilities with the balanced elements of a Dao top, back, and sides, and you’ve got a guitar ready to handle whatever musical situation you find yourself in.

Take the stage by storm

Sweetwater guitarists have found the design of this instrument offers much to love for both rhythm and lead players. A set neck and a stopbar tailpiece ensure excellent sustain whether you're powering through towering chords or blooming leads. Comfort is the name of the game given a "C"-shaped neck, making musical solos a breeze. Tie it all together with 22 medium-jumbo Jescar frets and you're ready to take the stage with a glorious guitar that plays every bit as good as it looks.

The D’Angelico legacy

After mastering his craft during an 18-year apprenticeship, luthier John D’Angelico opened his own shop in Manhattan’s Little Italy in 1932. Catering to New York’s many jazz musicians over the ensuing three decades, D’Angelico and a single apprentice became New York’s foremost stringed instrument builders, creating over one thousand treasured archtop guitars until John’s death in 1964. After his passing, the D’Angelico’s legacy lived on only through his rare, legendary instruments. After decades, the D’Angelico brand has resurfaced, bringing back the playability and attention to detail of the company’s New York roots. Today, Sweetwater is delighted to offer this fine line of distinguished instruments. D’Angelico uses state-of-the-art manufacturing processes and the finest available materials to create playable works of art for today’s guitarist. From a modest shop in Little Italy to the world stage, D’Angelico’s dedication to quality craftsmanship ensures that this brand won’t be going dormant again any time soon.

Rated 5/5

Gorgeous, versatile and worth every penny.

I bought this from Sweetwater at the tail end of guitar month in 2022. It feels like a much more solidly-built guitar than similar model guitars I've tried that sell for almost twice as much.
I'm usually gigging it through a Fender Twin, cranked enough to get feedback with no pedals. It has such a wide range of tonal possibilities that I haven't even taken full advantage of yet. I play rhythm and lead in a very dynamic, improvisational group and it has no problem cutting through a busy mix.
Right now it's the most expensive guitar I own out of more than 15 and counting, but it's quickly become my most frequently gigged. It's easily my nicest.
Music background: Jazz, classical, rock, progressive metal, stoner metal, jam bands
