A Refreshing Take on the Classic Single-cut Design
Merging a solid basswood body with a maple neck and a pair of Seymour Duncan DA-59 humbucking pickups, the D'Angelico Deluxe Atlantic is firmly rooted in the traditions of American rock. A pair of Seymour Duncan pickups may suggest an aggressive, high-output instrument, but the addition of push-pull tone knobs for coil tapping yields an amazingly wide, dynamic sonic range. Worn with a strap, the deep belly cut and thin body depth make this solidbody especially comfortable, while the Slim "C" neck profile sets a fast and fluid foundation for your fretwork. For undeniably vivid tone and looks that will have your audience looking twice, there's a lot to love about the D'Angelico Deluxe Atlantic solidbody electric guitar.

Basswood meets maple in this revised single-cut design
A compelling take on the classic single-cut design gives the Deluxe Atlantic a commanding stage presence and a familiar feel in the hands. Its comfortably contoured basswood body growls to life with very little coaxing, yielding a warm woodiness with prominent mids to cut through a busy musical arrangement. The Deluxe Atlantic’s set-in maple neck not only lends incredible sustain to your playing, but it also adds a bit of snap to your tone. The neck is capped with an easy-playing 14"-radius pau ferro fretboard, for premium tone and playability.
Seymour Duncan pickups deliver a wide tonal range
The D’Angelico Deluxe Atlantic comes loaded with a set of classic-sounding chrome-covered Seymour Duncan DA-59 humbuckers, designed to capture the vibe of late-1950s PAF pickups. To extend your sonic range further, each pickup features its own volume and tone knob for fine-tuning your sound. And if that wasn't enough, the push-pull tone knobs yield coil-tapped tones for lower output and enhanced clarity — a favorite feature among guitarists at Sweetwater.
