The D'Angelico Premier Gramercy Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric guitar provides a blend of warmth and clarity that suits a variety of musical styles. Its single-cutaway grand auditorium body shape strikes a balance between comfort and projection, allowing you to play for hours. The solid spruce top and mahogany back and sides produce a shimmering, articulate tone that cuts through a mix. The slim mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard feel smooth and fast under your fingers.

Premium Tonewoods for a Nuanced Sound

The Gramercy's solid spruce top delivers a bright, responsive tone with piano-like clarity. Its mahogany back and sides add warmth and depth. Together, these premium tonewoods create a balanced, nuanced sound with tight lows, crisp highs and a rich midrange. The tonewood combination provides enough warmth for blues and jazz but also enough clarity for fingerstyle. The Gramercy's tone will only improve over time as the wood ages and opens up.

Slim, Fast Neck for Effortless Playability

The Gramercy's slim mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard make playing fast passages and complex chords feel effortless. The C-shaped neck profile fits comfortably in your hand. The fingerboard's smooth, dense rosewood provides an ideal surface for bends and vibrato. The cutaway body gives you full access to the upper frets. Whether you prefer to strum chords or play intricate melodies, the Gramercy's neck is built for performance versatility.

Onboard Fishman Electronics for Amplified Gigs

The Gramercy comes equipped with Fishman electronics, allowing you to amplify your acoustic tone for live shows or recording. The Fishman pickup system accurately conveys the natural resonance and string balance of the guitar. Simple bass, mid and treble controls let you shape your amplified tone to suit the venue. You'll always have a warm, full-range sound on tap for gigs where acoustic volume is not enough.

Premium Appointments for an Upscale Feel

From its ornate mother-of-pearl inlays to its gloss finish, the Gramercy exudes an upscale, professional vibe. The binding, rosette and fingerboard inlays are decorated with subtle abalone accents. Die-cast tuners keep the guitar in tune through long sessions and heavy strumming. A deluxe hardshell case protects your investment when traveling between rehearsals and shows. Overall, the Gramercy delivers pro-level looks and performance that make a statement.
