We invited Vinny Raniolo over to our showroom to try four original D'Angelico's crafted by John himself, including the very first D'Angelico guitar ever built!

Guitars Featured:
1932 D'Angelico - The first D'Angelico guitar ever produced. This guitar was built like a violin, due to John's first experience as a luthier apprenticing for his uncle, a prominent violin maker.

1934 D'Angelico - You can start to see John taking his own stylistic approach to guitar making. It features an early iteration of the classic D'Angelico headstock with cupola head pin, a tortoise stairstep pickguard, and vintage style diamond F-holes.

1936 D'Angelico - This model closely resembles the 1934 model, but with a larger and rounder body. It features a Sunburst finish on a spruce top, with maple back and sides. An early Grover tailpiece predates the more common stairstep tailpiece seen on most D'Angelico guitars that followed.

1949 Excel - John began working on a single cutaway design in the late 40's and it quickly became the standard for archtops going forward. What's unique about this model is its bird's eye maple back and sides as opposed to the more common pearl maple. The Excel also features a model 1 11/16" nut width and slim C-shape neck, similar to D'Angelico models today.
