Always great ordering from D'Angelico direct. My only small gripe is the color choices of some other parts...like Scalini pickguards are limited. If D'A carried more colors, specifically pearled cream... See more

Firstly, I love the Korean made guitars, especially my Excel SS. I own a nice Gibson 335, as well as other name guitars, and my D'Angelico is as sweet or better than the others. The staff who have hel... See more

I'm pleased with my order. It arrived well-packed and undamaged, and of course the quality is first-class. The only glitch was in the online ordering process itself. I attempted to purchase four of t... See more

I love the guitar

I love the guitar. Everything about it is exactly what I wanted. There was only one problem. I purchased the Excel 16. The pick guard was not fitted very well and required several adjustments of the mounting bracket to fix the problem. On this model, the pickup is attached to the pick guard. When it arrived, the pickup was resting on the 6th string. Someone had placed a stack of foam backed adhesive tape under the pickup to pull it down but the tape had pulled loose. I think the people manufacturing the guitar did not want to take the time to adjust the bracket and mount the pick guard correctly. That should not happen on a guitar this expensive.

The Shop app is terrible. I did not get tracking info.

Well, the buying experience was a bit difficult since they use the SHOP app. I did not get tracking information. I struggled to find a way to contact customer service, and that is handled by a 3rd party as well. The first hard shell guitar case came broken But I must say that their customer service person did a great job and replaced the broken case right away.

I'm so sorry to hear you had an issue. SHOP is a purchasing option on the site, but we do also offer traditional credit card payments. Tracking information often goes to spam and we're very sorry you did not receive it. We do not outsource our customer service, but unfortunately don't have a team on hand outside of our normal business hours which often leads to a delay in getting back to customers on nights and weekends. I am terribly sorry that the case came broken, but am happy our team is able to replace it for you. I apologize for the inconvenience and trouble with this one!

No links to certain products

There's no link in your hamburger menu to your apparel or anything else. There's a guitars link, but I don't know if you sell anything else I want because I can't browse it.

Horrible customer service

First, it's next to impossible to actually speak to a customer service representative. They rarely respond to emails or the web page request. I ordered a truss rod cover online. It took three days to ship. They forgot to seal the envelope, so the item was lost in transit.. envelope arrived empty. It took another three days to ship the replacement.

Beautiful guitar and very happy with the purchase. I’m going to make some modifications but my questions regarding replacement parts and/or specific d’Angelico parts eg specs for upgrading were met with vague responses that didn’t help at all so I’ll be getting a luthier to assess what is required. Overall an enjoyable experience however.

Great sounding guitar

Great sounding guitar. First one i received had a couple blemishes on the back. Took it back to Guitar Center ordered another and that on had fret buzz on the first fret of one of the strings to where it buzzed and muted the string at the same time. Loved the guitar but took it back.

Update: response to D'Angelico. The guitar that I'm talking about is the D'Angelico Premier Series Gramercy CS Cutaway Orchestra Acoustic-Electric Guitar Vintage Sunburst- Guitar Center exclusive. I ordered both in store from Guitar Center one i had sent to the store and the second one was sent to my house. It is great guitar sounds great and looks even better but just had those issues with it. I had been looking into buying since December 2024 I would still like one they sound and look great.

Hey Rick, So sorry to hear that and thanks for bringing it to our attention. This review is coming up on a string and strap order. Would you mind sharing what guitar it was that you had purchased and if they were in-store models or ordered online? We'd love to look into making sure its not a persistent issue with a specific model!
