D'Angelico EX-59 & EX-DC Standard Demos

[@droonkeler6032]

That EX-DC is simply stunning in tone and looks!

[@texrex4580]

What a great demo of these guitars...played to perfection Richard.

as you think the first one is sounding really nice, then you get blown away by the P90 EX-59 guitar

[@THE8-BITROAD]

Felt in love with the first guitar!

Very nice review. Thanks for the comparison of the EX-DC to a Jazz hollow body guitar. Most demos of the DC are more rock oriented but I've wondered about he jazzier tones Great playing too!

[@BreadLightPray_EWFMgtr]

☑️👍great demo thanks ❗️ lifetime acoustic guitar player ; last several years delved into some budget priced 335 style HB semi- hollows ; but eventually discovered I liked P90 style pups much more on full hollow body , so was able to acquire D'Angelico DLX 59 and then the Excel 59 in SB shaded body ‼️ 🙃☻️🌙 🤓😎🤑

Stunning presentation of both guitar's capabilities both visual and audio segues as well as blends. Masterful performance, Richard. Tabs?

[@richardbarrettguitar1228]

Hi Alan, thanks so much for the positive feedback. Unlike Blues Headlines, these aren't transcribed - we put the track idea together, then I go for a couple of solo takes while Martin films me (hence no 'punch ins' on my little mistakes...)

Pleasant. The neck pickup tone on the EX-DC is sleazier than a 70's Cadillac!

[@megajames3000]

Thanks for playing jazz on the Jazz box. Sounds good

[@VoodooDewey69]

Both are beautiful jazz boxes.

[@db5837]

Very nice playing brought out the best in these guitars.

[@michaelvaldez6878]

Excellent playing! Loved the sound of both.

[@Alanoffer]

Wow what a nice looking guitar ,I've always liked the over the top headstock ,but that colour is nice

[@leftpastsaturn67]

Nicely played sir.

[@kjatexas3679]

Didn't know you could play jazz. NICE !!!!

[@DMSProduktions]

AS you Poms would say, ' GAWJUSS'!

[@glensmith654]

Im not into jazz but that was sweet.

[@johnvinter]

That head stock~~~JESUS!!!!!

[@jesuscontreras8986]

Yes ?

[@alexisalescio1562]

nice guitar and I love also the tone!

[@BillWardWesternLights]

I have been looking at the EXL-1 which has great reviews both plugged in and acoustically with a floating pickup. The EX 59 really sounds great, with a lot of diversity in sound and obviously has a better pickup system. One of the things I am looking for in an archtop now is a large body guitar that also can be played acoustically and sound good while practicing and just jamming in the living room. How would this compare acoustically with the EXL-1 played acoustically? Thanks a bunch!

[@BreadLightPray_EWFMgtr]

☑️ have the Excel 59 and Dlx 59 , my questions similar to yours ; I've discovered these guitars sound pretty bland unplugged but you will get enough sound ; what will be better is a 1w _ 5 watt tube amp head and you can get all the warm golden tones or cleans you could ask for at low volumes ☻️

[@Ronno4691]

I like the Art Deco bits.

[@duppykitoon]

Must. Buy. This. Guitar.

[@matteoimpilloni6577]

really nice!

[@pallhe]

Nice!

[@Capt-Cran]

Much appreciated :)

[@huckodonnell]

nice playing.....however, were are they made,and what do they cost. can you order one without the silly brass nob headstock as some of us like wood.......

[@richardbarrettguitar1228]

Hi Rory, there are full details in Guitarist 410. These videos are designed to supplement that info rather than replace it, but I take the point. 🙂

[@FlaxeMusic]

Not a chance on not having the "silly brass nob", it's been the standout addition to the D'Angelico headstock design since the 30's.

[@raphaelbiazotto]

Amazing guitars, great playing. Lovely demo. But as a rocker i would really like to see some overdriven tones out of those, the DC specially seems to be a nice guitar for vintage rock tones. And the 59 seems very suitable for Yes playing.

Smooooooooooth : )
