Overview

A full hollowbody with a carved spruce top and floating pickup

An homage to master-builder John DAngelicos original archtop design, the EXL-1 is a legendary instrument. Pair this design with a custom-made tangerine Art-Deco finish and the EXL-1 is even more of a stand-out. Its floating pickup design produces vibrant resonance, easily handling both rich, smoky comp chords and intricate lead lines.

The EXL-1 exudes elegance, with a carved spruce top, maple back, and signature stairstep tailpiece, pickguard and tuners. Capturing the spirit of its mid-century counterpart, it is unmatched in quality, playability and style, all offered at an attractive price. The EXL-1 humbly accepts the title given to it by so many jazz players: their dream guitar.

Paired with this one-of-a-kind tangerine Art-Deco finish, the EXL-1 is even more of a stand-out. Includes case.
