WoW! Beautiful sounding D'Angelico Excel. Overtones are excellent. It sounded like a harmonica boogie playing on top of the guitar in the second demo just from those overtones.🎉🎉 Either that or Jen had a harmonica neck holder and started tootin' a little.😂
Hello from Gatlinburg TN Smoky Mountains Park 🏞️🌄 ..Saw you on Netflix and fell in love with This amazing Family!!!❤️🙏. I don't know how to play but my late mom did in Portsmouth RI 🙏🙏
Wow... so clear and crisp. The way the tones resonate is just unbelievable. I don't know if I've ever heard anything like that. I don't know his name, but this guitar looks and sounds like something that one of the guys playing in the band with Allison Krause and Robert Plant would play.... Nice demo, Lemmo.
This guitar is as close as we ever get in the guitar world, to something that might be equivalent to a Stradivarius violin. Not even the most desirable pre-war Martins are in this category. These stand apart from everything else.
Amazing guitar and Michael is a great player and spokesperson. Would love to know the name of the first song. He played it on the Southern Jumbo as well.
Wow what a beautiful finish on that! And inlays! Love the long pickgaurd too..Stunning! Wish I could afford it…and has a great tone as well…does it have flat wounds on it?
If mr. Trout was yo play it you would hear it do what it was built for . That guitar is The Beast of Beasts ,in its own world . Mike is kilker . That guitar is a class all its own .
I wish you would give us the names of the songs you're playing. Often times i hear a familiar tune but i just can't come up with the name of the song or artist.. The first tune you played sounded very familiar, but i just can't figure out what it's called or who it's by.
I'm always surprised by how little bass response archtops have. Even those built in the '30's as acoustic instruments before the invention of the pickup. Ken Parker has been putting the bass back into archtops. His sound a lot better.
The archtop was designed to cut through horns in jazz and swing, the pop music of the '20s and '30s -- therefore, the midrange was the focus. Overtones and resonance, as from a dreadnought, were not what Gibson, Epiphone and D'Angelico were seeking to enhance. They had a very specialised use in mind.
Given it's age... that guitar is in incredible shape! Looks AND sounds amazing.
Be safe LA people. Wishing you all the best.
Well done, Michael, on that first song. An amazing piece of history.

@@mjvicc1952 I absolutely agree - picked a big number when I made that original comment.
What a beauty! Sounds incredible too!

Does anyone know the first song name?
Sandstorm by Darude
Great sounding
You have no idea how disappointed I was when you turned around and Jon Stout wasn't behind you.
(But you're cool, too, Michael 😀 )
Nice!
One of the most beautiful guitars I’ve ever seen. Sounds great. We all wish you could play better too, Lemmo!😂
Amazing guitar and Michael is a great player and spokesperson. Would love to know the name of the first song. He played it on the Southern Jumbo as well.
The inlays are basically ancient runes 🔥🥵🥵
That's right your wish has been granted a while ago Michael hey Jenn
Have to get a guitar from Norm's!!
Wow what a beautiful finish on that! And inlays! Love the long pickgaurd too..Stunning! Wish I could afford it…and has a great tone as well…does it have flat wounds on it?

I'll have two please.
Based on the spelling of Excel on the headstock (Missing the C) and the headstock graphics, I am certain that this guitar is a 1935, not a 1936.
Sounds amazing...as for looks. Uh,how'd that guitar come outta that case looking and sounding like that?
Spent no time in the Murphy Lab! 😂😂😂
Articulate, a perfect word for this guitar.
👍✌❤😎
WHAT A MAJESTIC FINE CRAFTED OLD INSTRUMENT THIS IS NORM
IT’S NOT TUNED TO PITCH MIKE
BEAUTIFUL SOUND HERE

essa guitarra é de 1935? 1936 ou 1937??? precisa decidir ai...
Just woke up ? Crawled out of the bushes ?
jag vill ha en men det har blivet lite problem med mina fingrar som jag sågat lite av tåppdelarna av dom pekfingrar och tummar ,
why don't you tell the price? i have to go find it on your site. do you think i'll accidentally buy something cheaper? just tell the price please.
And that’s why they don’t. FYI that guitar is probably in the 20-30 thousand range.
lol. If you want to play it better, learn Moonlight in Vermont & Moonlight Sonata note for note.
That thing is 90 years old?!?!?! She don't look a day over 19 😅

True; they tend to be toppy and midrangey. I guess they were mostly used as percussive rhythm instruments back in the big band era.
The archtop was designed to cut through horns in jazz and swing, the pop music of the '20s and '30s -- therefore, the midrange was the focus. Overtones and resonance, as from a dreadnought, were not what Gibson, Epiphone and D'Angelico were seeking to enhance. They had a very specialised use in mind.
