Description
The D’Angelico Premier DC semi-hollow electric guitar provides a versatile tone and playing experience for guitarists seeking a bold yet balanced sound. With its stylish double-cutaway body, the DC produces a wide range of tones from round and clean to bright and searing. Its 16″ body constructed of laminated maple offers remarkable sustain while the slim C-shaped neck provides a seamless heel transition and standout comfort.
Custom-Voiced Humbuckers
The Premier DC is equipped with custom-voiced humbucking pickups that produce balanced and bold tone. The neck pickup delivers sweet, rounded tones that are perfect for jazz and blues. The bridge pickup provides vivid highs and an aggressive growl suited for rock music. With a 3-way toggle switch, you can select each pickup individually or use them together for a blend of warm and bright tones.
Four-Knob Control
Shape your tone with four ebony knobs that provide independent volume and tone control for each pickup. Dial in the perfect amount of highs, lows and gain for your needs. The 500k pots and standard mono output jack offer a transparent signal path that lets the natural sound of the guitar shine through.

The fingerboard has elegant white pearloid block inlays and a comfortable medium jumbo fret size. A tune-o-matic bridge and stop tailpiece provide stable intonation and tuning.
Classic Style with Modern Appeal
Visually, the Premier DC blends classic and modern styles. It has a gloss black finish, nickel hardware and a tortoise pickguard for a retro-inspired look.
