The recent crop of D’Angelico-inspired guitars has come a long way towards respectability; witness the fact that I’ve got one here for sale, like it a lot, and approve of it heartily. I knew John D’Angelico, am probably one of no more than a handful of people in our biz alive today who can say that.
