This is vey good. I remember when the latest owners acquired the D'A name and began to produce these guitars. The cork sniffers dismissed them and said it would only be a matter of time before this effort to capitalize on John's guitars would come to an end. I think they've shown how to rebrand a guitar. New models, excellent endorsements, constant innovation, and quality for the price. Good for you, guys!
This is the best commercial you can do to sell me a guitar - it doesn’t only show the instrument - it represents a lifetime and emotion linked to the music and instruments
Gypsy Jazz! Best guitar demo EVER! IMO :) D'Angelico is making some of the best guitars around IMO. I dig my D'Agelico Excel blueburst, the fit and finish is exquisite at the price IMO. That Style-B is at the top of my guitar list, and guitar isn't my main instrument anymore (Hammond organ these days). I'd like to see D'Angelico do an acoustic-only version, non-cutaway. :) If you enjoy Vinny Valentino's playing (he's got the Excel in the video), look for him with Tony Monaco and Steve Smith, Groove Blue Organ Trio. Worth a look and listen. Cheers!
This is FANTASTIC! My wife and I, along with two friends of ours, had the pleasure of visiting the D'Angelico Headquarters in New York this past December.AMAZING! I own a Style B and an Excel. I love them both... Thank you D'Angelico for making quality, affordable guitars that sound and play terrific!
Recently purchased a D'Angelico Premier...I sold off my collection of Gibson archtop s years ago and must say I was pleasantly surprised by this brand... never owned an original D'Angelico so cant compare , however , for the $$$ these are a nice basis for upgrade, or stand alone
I have the New Yorker, it plays fairly well...my father's friend Johnny Smith was a friend of Mr DAngelico... he was very cool..... the playing on this promotion is above excellent 👌
D'Angelico is flying way too far under the radar right now. Beautiful instruments with an absolute love affair with artists built into every instrument I've seen. Just ordered myself a Excel bass. Very excited to get it. Nearly exactly what I've been looking for for quite some time. Sorry to see the Excel archtop basses discontinued and very much hoping they'll revisit the line at some point. Maybe after a few user-requested tweeks? Anyway, fantastic work all
Goooooood Night!!!!!!!I I can not describe how much I enjoyed that session. The guitars were jus as beautiful as the music. I will have my blessing and get one of these guitars so I can start learning again.
Oh man Mr.Vinny's lead in run @ 1:22 is simply marvelous ! this is one classy, classy trio indeed much enjoyed gentlemen thx :) ... btw, a DC Exel is on my bucket list ...
Brilliant playing by all 3! I bought the EXL-1 and it sounds just as good as the Throwback's. Changed the strings to flatwounds to get a more traditional jazz tone. Anyone know why D'Angelico ship with round wounds on their jazz guitars? Also, does anyone know what amps both Vinny's are playing through?
i tuned this in to see if i could get some info on the guitar, not to watch some hotshot jazz guys strut their stuff. They are great musicians but their playing tells me little about the guitar other than it is a jazz guitar. i was curious about the floating bridge and if it comes off when you change the strings all at once.
Hey John, the bridge will come off once you take tension off the strings. Also, check out this demo we made with Rodney Jones that should also give you some additional info on the model: th-cam.com/video/nhCu4aMjyqw/w-d-xo.html
If these guys were playing at a party, I'd have pulled up a seat and watched the show while all the normies were eating d'oeuvres and making stupid small talk.

And building a new customer base with their solid body line. They're getting it right for sure.
What beautiful guitar playing, if this doesn't move you then time to leave the planet.
Left me with a smile on my face! I'll take both of them.
yep . . me too
Likewise!
Bravo to everyone involved in the creation of this. Very well done.
That tune, After You're Gone... Well we're glad you're back!

That type B is one of the best sounding guitars I’ve ever heard.
These guys were on the Titanic till the end😜
😂😂😂...i was thinking about the same situation..
I would have stayed till the end of the performance aswell😂these guys are worth missing the lifeboat for❤
😂😂
...WOW,
That "fiddle" sounds great !

Great playing Vinny (both of you! ) and of course wonderful violin work by the master himself- Adrien Chevalier!

I love my Style B.
PLEASE don't discontinue these for another 18 months! I am in for one of both.
Purchased the excel throwback in vintage natural myself. Can’t play like these gents yet but on my way! Beautiful guitar and great playability/tone.
These three guys can really play!
My God... more, please...
Great piece, execution, guitars and ad. The nicest thing is to see that the construction parameters of the founder are both maintained and renewed.
Such classy advertising.. perfect.. thank you!!!
fantastic playing on beautiful guitars....bliss
Didn't expect to watch the whole thing too the end, but here we are.
Okay. I guess I might get one of these at some point.
Incredible, I love it!
Nice!..Not only do I want the guitar, I think I’ll pick up a tux.
Nice! Great guitars and fabulous players . . . a Saturday morning treat!

nice music and tone.-)
Wonderful enjoyed it so much.... looking forward to a Throwback style A as soon as my shop gets them in. Always loved this disco stuff ! 😱
I'd pay for an online ticket to hear these folks play for an hour.
fantastic sound
That's the Boongaloo pedal
three very cool cats. Loved it
Wow!
Well played all.
This makes me want to get a violin!
Merci pour ce bon moment. Julien
Marvellous
Amazing
Out standing 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
Very nice gentleman.... Very nice !!!!!! Thank you !
Oh man, great playing and such beautiful guitars!!
Brilliant playing by all 3! I bought the EXL-1 and it sounds just as good as the Throwback's. Changed the strings to flatwounds to get a more traditional jazz tone. Anyone know why D'Angelico ship with round wounds on their jazz guitars? Also, does anyone know what amps both Vinny's are playing through?
Roundwounds - pre-bebop
Flatwounds - bebop
Viva l'Italia!!!!
Beautiful
The two people who disliked this video , is everything okay at home?
probably just no musicians......that'life.....
I 've got one NY Lefty by Dangelico, 2006.....
Just the best guitar of my life, nothing else !!!!!
sometimes the finger slips when we fall asleep 🤭🤤
is that okay ⁉️😖 🥸
Bravissimo!!!
😎🎩 Godfather feeling. 🎻
Nice! Beautiful guitars!
Wow not that they need one but can you imagine wht they would sound like with a bass player? M. Chevalier is so smooth and tasty on that fiddle.
My cousins Vinny. Superlative players.
Hello! What amps are theses guys using? Thanks
That was a great advertisement!
this video is great , عالی ، توپ ...
Awesome. I’m thinking Adrian needs to change his name though.
Vinny!
Love it!
what kind of jazz is that ?? sounds wonderful
gypsy jazz
Uwielbiam wszystkich
That was amazing guys. You should do more...👍
Django would have been proud ....very nice
Man, these cats can play!
spliced the audio in, not what it appears. masterful illusion.
Why did you guys discontinue these?
Respect 🤙
That was sooo bad ass. Talent for days.
after you gone?
So if I change my name to Vinny, I can play like this?
Please, who is the violinist!?
Adrien Chevalier!
The blond guitar seems to have a wider neck- anyone know if this is true? that's a plus-
Both guitars have the same size necks!
What style of music is this?
I’m trying to learn how to play this way what kind of genre, or music is this?
Gypsy jazz
After you’ve gone
The names are switched no?
No
Didnt know that Vincent Cassel could play that good! Just joking... nice presentation!!
They changed the headstock........
The guy on red guitar looks like Vincent Cassel the actor.
Name this song?
'After You've Gone'
@@DAngelicoNY thank you
I Will Buy a D Angelico Guitar...
When I see a hollow body this is exactly what I think of playing
Two pairs of hands to go please.
Anyone know where I can hear more music like this? Any Album recommendations?
Alexey Kuznetsov, very talented jazz guitarist who plays in style of Chet Atkins, Joe Pass and other great musicians of that era.
Jimmy Rosenberg 🤝🤝🤝
A tale of two vinny's
why ten people dislike? چرا؟ Pourquoi? واقعا چرا؟ Warum? ինչու? آخه چرا؟ چطور تونستید؟

Way to rip it up Vinny
that's how you sell a guitar.
If these guys were playing at a party, I'd have pulled up a seat and watched the show while all the normies were eating d'oeuvres and making stupid small talk.
