Magic

These limited run models are being built by acclaimed boutique luthier Gene Baker, Chief Master Builder at Premier Builders Guild (PBG), and his expert build team at the PBG Workshop in Arroyo Grande, California.
The first reissue in the USA Master Builder Series is the iconic 1942 D’Angelico Excel, to be introduced at NAMM 2013. Based on extensive research beginning with MRI's of the original, the Excel Reissue will be an authentic update enhanced by modern hardware and appointments.

Electric option features Johnny Smith Lollar pickup with one volume and one tone pot mounted on pickguard.

The 1942 D’Angelico Excel is a legendary instrument. I want you to feel the D’Angelico magic from the moment you hold this Reissue in your hands.
