FS - D'Angelico Deluxe Brighton Limited Edition P90 REDUCED TO £825

edited October 2022 in Guitars £
Up for sale is this incredible guitar made by D'Angelico. It's from their premium 'deluxe' range and is in the limited edition sapphire finish. I've only had it a few weeks and have had the nut cut nice and low and the frets perfectly levelled by Jim at Planet Guitar. However I've just pulled the trigger on a Novo (thanks @Josh_Coskutoday which has left me in need of some funds!

It comes with the Seymour Duncan noiseless P90s which sound fantastic and a lovely dark rosewood neck. As you can see from the pictures I changed the pickup covers to cream which I'll leave on there, but of course I will include the original black ones.

It also comes with everything it came with including straplocks and a beautifully fitted D'Angelico hard case.

Can post at buyers expense and risk, although it is obviously in a hard case and I still have the double cardboard box it shipped in so there shouldn't be much risk involved.

Will consider offers around £950 collected from East Farleigh, Kent

Just had a huge bill come in for my '67 Bassman repair so will take £825 for a quick sale. Bargain!

  • How did you find the fit and finish straight "out of the box" on these new D'Angelicos? I note that you've straight away had it fettled by a technician - was in not so good straight from the factory? 

    Reason I am if that I'm currently thinking of splurging on one myself, but don't fancy having to then spend decent money on it to get it playing right!

    (GLWTS BTW!)

  • The fit and finish out of the box is superb. I always expect with any guitar at this price point that the nut will need to be cut a little lower and a few frets levelled to get it playing like a custom shop guitar. Of course it was perfectly playable straight away but I always think it's worth the extra to get a new guitar setup. 

    I think it's definitely worth the extra £80 on any guitar under £2000 to have it setup straight away. Sometimes even on a guitar above that price bracket!

    The binding and finish etc though is of the highest quality - definitely recommend from my experience! It's also a very nice weight, 7.5lbs from memory.

    Hope that helps!
