D'Angelico Premier Grateful Dead Tammany Limited-Edition Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Red, White, and Blue Lightning Bolt

Created in celebration of the Grateful Dead's 60th anniversary, the D'Angelico Premier Grateful Dead Tammany acoustic-electric guitar is a striking limited-edition instrument made for fans and players alike. At the heart of this model is the iconic red, white and blue lightning bolt finish—a nod to the band's enduring "Steal Your Face" logo and psychedelic style. Custom artwork is paired with thoughtful acoustic craftsmanship—including a gloss-finished solid spruce top, layered sapele back and sides and Fishman Presys VT electronics—giving this guitar real stage and studio utility alongside its unmistakable visual appeal. With just the right mix of collector-grade flair and gig-ready specs, the Grateful Dead Tammany strikes a chord with Deadheads and modern songwriters in equal measure.

Comfortable Orchestra Model With Solid Spruce Top

The Grateful Dead Tammany features an orchestra model body shape with a non-cutaway design, giving it a refined tone that blends low-end warmth with sparkling high-end detail. The solid spruce top delivers resonance and dynamic range far beyond what you'd expect at this price. Its layered sapele back and sides lend a clear, woody character that supports intricate fingerstyle playing just as well as full-strum folk textures. With scalloped X-bracing inside, the body feels responsive and alive, adapting easily to a wide range of genres and playing styles.

Lightning Bolt Finish and Signature "Steal Your Face" Artwork

From its red, white and blue lightning bolt top to the acrylic "Steal Your Face" logo inlaid on the headstock, this Tammany drips with Grateful Dead artistry. The matching custom gig bag keeps the theme going, while antique bronze hardware adds a vintage patina that fits the 60th anniversary vibe. Other standout touches include D'Angelico's signature Stairstep wave tuners, diamond fretboard inlays and a rosewood bridge shaped with the brand's trademark flair. It's every bit as much a display-worthy piece as it is a workhorse acoustic-electric guitar.

Fishman Presys VT Electronics for Stage-Ready Tone

Whether you're performing solo sets or sitting in on a Jerry-inspired acoustic jam, the Grateful Dead Tammany is ready to amplify. A Fishman Presys VT system is discreetly mounted inside, with intuitive volume and tone controls tucked just within the soundhole for easy access. This setup faithfully captures the guitar's natural tone with a warm, detailed voice that translates beautifully to PA systems and recording interfaces. The pickup system is lightweight and unobtrusive, allowing the top to resonate freely while preserving the guitar's clean aesthetic.

Thoughtful D'Angelico Construction for Long-Lasting Playability

The neck on the Grateful Dead Tammany is carved from scarf-jointed mahogany into a comfortable C shape, with a satin finish that feels smooth and broken-in from the first chord. The 25" scale length and 1-11/16" nut width make it ideal for a wide range of players, while the medium-jumbo frets and 14" radius fingerboard ensure smooth bends and clear articulation up the neck. Bone nut and saddle components provide long-term tuning stability and tonal integrity, rounding out a build that's every bit as dependable as it is eye-catching.
