D'Angelico Premier SS Stairstep Tailpiece Champagne DAPSSCMPCTCB

The Premier SS is a semi-hollow stunner built for a wide range of tones. A 15-inch-wide, single-cutaway semi-hollow strapped with Seymour Duncan Designed humbuckers, the SS delivers warm, full-bodied tone that is still crisp and clear. From clean jazz to soulful rock grit, its versatility is unmatched—and with a full-sized yet lightweight center block, feedback is kept at bay.

FEATURES

CLASSIC MEETS MODERN
A curvaceous and compact single-cutaway semi-hollow with a full-sized yet lightweight center block, the SS is D’Angelico’s preeminent semi-hollow design. Available in figured maple or standard maple.

WARM, FULL-BODIED TONE
Available with standard D’Angelico Humbuckers or custom-voiced Supro Bolt Buckers tailored specifically for the DC provide bold, vintage-inspired clarity with extra warmth in the mid-range on both clean and saturated tones.

QUALITY COMPONENTS
Robust hardware, tuning machines with a 14:1 gear ratio, and custom ebony knobs contribute premium feel and trustworthy quality.

CLASSIC D’ANGELICO AESTHETIC
Several years after its debut, the Premier Series now features classic D’Angelico aesthetics and signature details. A focus on clean lines, smart textures and Art Deco flourishes imbues each instrument with the warmth and sleekness of New York City music history.
