Description
The Excel Series Tour Collection contains new variations of fan-favorite models—stripped down yet undeniably professional grade. Built with the gigging player in mind, the Excel DC Tour is both exceptionally well-constructed and highly playable. It retains beloved elements of its standard Excel Series counterpart in its ebony fingerboard and sleek body shape, but features a refined electronics configuration consisting of a single volume and tone knob. All-new Supro Bolt Buckers provide a wide range of warm and crystal clear humbucker tones while 50s-style wiring retains top-end clarity as the volume knob is rolled off. Representing a more minimalistic D'Angelico aesthetic, the Excel DC Tour features a Throwback Scroll-Style headstock with custom Vintage Deluxe tuners from Grover and small diamond fingerboard inlays complemented by 1930s-inspired diamond f-holes on its 16-inch wide body.
A 16-inch-wide semi-hollow with deep cutaways and a lightweight centerblock, the DC offers remarkable sustain and exceptional genre versatility. No pickguard and 1930s-inspired diamond f-holes bring old-school charm.
Supro’s take on the most sought-after P.A.F. Humbuckers, Bolt Buckers provide bold, vintage-inspired clarity. Warm and balanced yet offering growling tones, Bolt Buckers are infused with old-school Supro attitude, utilizing an Alnico 2 magnet in the neck and Alnico 5 in the bridge to create the perfect pair.
A 12-inch fingerboard radius and medium jumbo fretwire on an ebony fingerboard make for effortless playability. Paired with a C-shape neck with extra thickness in the shoulder for snug hand-fit and added sustain.
Custom tuners from Grover offer a 15:1 gear ratio, providing precise tuning and contributing to a lightweight headstock. A satin nickel finish and cream buttons offer vintage-inspired minimalism, while an undersized Throwback headstock with 5-ply binding offers an understated alternative to the typically ornate D’Angelico aesthetic.
