A vintage spin on the flagship model, the Excel EXL-1 Throwback embodies the legacy of fine archtops.
A 17 inch wide, 3 inch deep body emanates warm, woody archtop tone propelled by a single floating Seymour Duncan Johnny Smith mini humbucker.
And visually, it's hard to look away. Old-school full-fret mother-of-pearl fingerboard inlays on an ebony fingerboard lead to a scroll-style headstock designed by John D'Angelico in the 30s, while a satin ebony pickguard meets a spruce top featuring multi-bound Throwback f-holes.
Available in Vintage Natural and Viola.
