D'Angelico / Premier DC Stairstep Ocean Turquoise

The Premier DC Stairstep Ocean Turquoise is a model with an original double cutaway shape that is 16 inches (406.4 mm) wide and 1.75 inches (44.45 mm) thick, a semi-hollow body with a center block structure, and a Stairstep Trapeze tailpiece.

The pickguard, with its original shape that is characteristic of D'Angelico, is a 5-ply tortoise shell pattern.
The body top, headstock and neck are decorated with binding, and the design is combined with white pearloid block position markers.
The body material is maple, and wood materials such as maple neck and ovangkol fingerboard are used.
The neck finish is gloss, it has a 24.75-inch (628.65 mm) scale, and the neck joint is a set neck joint.
In addition, it is equipped with a dual action truss rod, which is adjusted on the head side.
The distinctive headstock design inherits the tradition of D'Angelico.
The truss rod cover is made of aluminum, and its impressive design is inspired by the skyscrapers of New York, where Art Deco architecture (such as the Empire State Building) was popular in New York around 1930.
The pickups are a pair of metal-covered Seymour Duncan-designed HB-102N humbuckers and HB-101B humbuckers.
The controls are a two-volume, two-tone, three-way pickup selector layout.
The hardware is all chrome, and the guitar features Rotomatic-type tuners with Stairstep buttons, and a Tune-O-Matic and Stairstep Trapeze tailpiece.
The body has a gloss finish and is ocean turquoise in color.
A gig bag is included.
