LEGENDARY DESIGN
The Excel 16 is a sleek, sixteen-inch single cutaway jazz box offered as a smaller alternative to our iconic top-seller, the EXL-1 and is designed with the gigging musician in mind.
Premium feel
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.
Classic Tone
Strapped with either a floating Seymour Duncan Johnny Smith mini-humbucker or a full-sized 59, both options yield classic archtop tone, with warm, woody low end and articulate mids.
