HUGE TONE AND SUSTAIN FOR DAYS For the first time since D’Angelico’s foray into the world of acoustic guitars, the Excel Lexington is back by popular demand. A non-cutaway dreadnought offering huge tone and serious sustain, the Lexington features a solid Sitka spruce top with ornate laminated macassar ebony back and sides. Despite its larger body, the Lexington’s slim C-shape neck still guarantees playability—especially with a satin finish that fully eliminates the issue of sticking hands. Equipped with the Fishman Presys+ onboard preamp and tuner. https://youtu.be/i-1rDEsm8uw A DREADNOUGHT CLASSIC Featuring a solid Sitka spruce top with ornate laminated macassar ebony back and sides and a non-cutaway dreadnought body design, the Lexington balances size and articulation. SCALLOPED X-BRACING Scalloped X-bracing allows for resonant, airy tone to freely emanate from the body while preserving comfortable body weight. SLIM, SATIN-FINISHED SET NECK A slim, satin-finished mahogany neck offers exceptional playablity, prevents the fretting hand from sticking to the neck, and aids in warmth of tone. TRUE TO TONE AMPLIFICATION Featuring the Fishman Presys+ onboard preamp and tuner, the Lexington sounds like itself both on stage and unplugged.
