If you&rsquo;re hunting for a fun-to-play semi-hollowbody, pick up a D&rsquo;Angelico&rsquo;s Premier DC. But be warned &mdash; you won&rsquo;t want to put it down!</p> <h4>Top-shelf tonewoods yield top-shelf hollowbody tones</h4> <p>The Premier DC features a resonant all-maple semi-hollowbody with a comfortable double-cut shape. As a tonewood, maple positively shouts, yielding a bright tone with long sustain and a lot of bite. This bell-like tone enables your notes to spring to life, then gently decay into a long sustain &mdash; perfect for leads and solos. A solid centerblock effectively keeps feedback at bay. The Premier DC&rsquo;s set-thru maple neck not only lends incredible sustain to your playing, it also adds a bit of snap to your tone. The neck is capped with an ovangkol fingerboard.&nbsp;</p> <h4>Seymour Duncan Designed pickups deliver classic humbucking tones</h4> <p>The D&rsquo;Angelico Premier DC comes loaded with a set of classic-sounding chrome-covered Seymour Duncan Designed humbuckers. The HB-101 bridge pickup boasts an Alnico V magnet and winding specs based on a late-1950s PAF design. This vintage-inspired pickup is a great all-rounder. It handles jazz-tinged cleans, high-gain distortion, and everything in between. The HB-102 neck pickup also employs an Alnico V magnet, but is a tad overwound for hot-rodded humbucker tones. It will really make your amp scream! A 3-way toggle allows for easy pickup switching, and each pickup features its own volume and tone knob for maximum tonal versatility.</p> <h4>D'Angelico: Excellence Embodied</h4> <p>Manhattan's Little Italy, 1932.
