A D'Angelico Grand Auditorium in the Spirit of the Premier Series
Founded in New York in 1932, D'Angelico built its reputation on an iconic lutherie heritage. Today, the brand offers its instruments in three series (Premier, Excel, and Deluxe): the Premier targets an excellent balance of features and playability, maintaining a strong identity and modern choices. The Premier Gramercy LS Mahogany Satin fits this approach: an electro-acoustic guitar with a sober aesthetic, designed to accompany the guitarist daily, from the living room to the stage.
For Which Guitarist and Styles?
With its Grand Auditorium format and cutaway, this D'Angelico suits both the serious beginner and the intermediate player seeking a versatile and comfortable guitar. The shorter scale length and C-shaped neck promote relaxed playing (chords, arpeggios, vocal accompaniment). It particularly thrives in pop, folk, blues, and songwriting, while remaining comfortable for more melodic lines thanks to the access to higher frets.
Sound Characteristics
The combination of mahogany top, back, and sides emphasizes a warm register, with rich mids and a naturally controlled attack, very pleasant for both pick playing and fingerstyle. The Grand Auditorium format provides a good balance between bass, mids, and treble, with consistent projection and definition that holds well in a mix. Plugged in, the D'Angelico MG-30 electronics (EQ, preamp, and tuner) allow quick tone adjustments and secure tuning without external accessories.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To maintain the original feel, opt for acoustic strings with a 12-53 gauge (such as D'Addario EXP-16). For amplification, a 6.35 mm mono instrument jack cable is suitable for the standard output.
