A D'Angelico Grand Auditorium Designed for the Premier Range
The Premier Gramercy embodies the D'Angelico spirit: a guitar with a refined look and strong personality, designed to offer maximum musicality and versatility. Its Grand Auditorium format, combined with an "Aged Burst" aesthetic, makes it an instrument that is both elegant and immediately inspiring, suitable for both acoustic and amplified playing.
For Which Guitarists and Styles?
Thanks to its balanced size and cutaway, this D'Angelico is well suited for beginner to intermediate guitarists seeking a comfortable acoustic, as well as for experienced musicians looking for a reliable guitar to accompany rehearsals, concerts, or direct recording. It is particularly suited for fingerstyle, pop, folk, and dynamic strumming, with good clarity of chords and melodies.
Sound Characteristics
The solid spruce top provides clarity, a quick response, and a wide dynamic range: perfect for highlighting pick attack as well as finger nuances. The sapelli back and sides add a warm coloration slightly centered on the midrange, helping the guitar stay present in a mix. The Grand Auditorium format promotes a balanced output between bass, mids, and treble, while the cutaway facilitates playing beyond the 12th fret. When plugged in, the Fishman Sonitone electronics offer direct control of volume and tone, convenient for switching from a bright sound to a softer color without complexity.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To stay as close as possible to the original feel, a set of 12-53 acoustic strings (such as D'Addario EXP-16) is a safe choice. For amplification, a 6.35 mm mono jack cable is compatible with the standard jack chassis. An acoustic guitar capo will also fit without any particular constraints.
