On April 9, 1958, D'Angelico sold the guitar for a 2nd time (perhaps consigned by the original owner) to Mr. Frank Zacchino, who owned the guitar and played it professionally for many years until his retirement. Mr. Zacchino was the owner of the guitar until his death, at which point his family continued to take care of the instrument until now. The guitar is in excellent condition with one small repair on the center seam. Equipped with its original DeArmond Rhythm Chief RC1000 floating pickup. Original tailpiece with 2nd\/previous owner's name engraved. Reproduction pickguard with repaired crack. Gorgeous flame on the back and sides.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 12pt; margin-bottom: 12pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #434343; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003eThe original bill of sale for Mr. Zacchino's purchase is included with the guitar (see photo). On this bill, D'Angelico referred to the guitar as a \"Super Model\", being a blend of some of his most iconic existing models.

John D'Angelico reserved Style A and Style B for his more \"entry level\" guitars price-wise.

It also has a brass \"finial\", just like the Excel model.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo major repairs are evident, and there are no cracks whatsoever. The guitar might have had a little overspray at some point, but that's very common with vintage D'Angelicos. The pickguard is not the original one; those typically off-gas and crumble. This one was clearly custom-made and is beautiful. The bridge and tailpiece are original, as are the machine heads. The back of the guitar has a more subtle flame than the pricier models, but it is just as lovely. Excellent condition overall, gorgeous tone.
