- An all-new 16-inch-wide archtop
- Punchy, woody and sweet tone
- Slightly shallower body depth that maintains a full-bodied warmth
- Flame Maple back & sides with a Spruce top

- Thicker C-shape neck with 12" fretboard radius
- Seymour Duncan DA-59 neck humbucker
- Floating Ebony Wood bridge

The Excel 16 is an all-new 16-inch-wide archtop offering undeniably punchy, woody and sweet tone that immediately recalls classic New York City jazz. A happy medium for traditional jazz players looking for an instrument that is easier to wield than its larger counterparts, the Excel 16 has a slightly shallower body depth at 2.75" but still yields all the full-bodied warmth one desires from an archtop. A 12-inch fingerboard radius and slightly thicker C-shape neck create remarkable comfort--equal parts hefty and fast-playing. The Excel 16's acoustic resonance is complemented by either a Seymour Duncan Johnny Smith Floating Mini Humbucker that maximizes top sustain or a Seymour Duncan '59 Humbucker, for those in pursuit of bold and balanced tones that can more easily cut through in a larger band setting.
