D’Angelico’s relationship with Grateful Dead legend Bob Weir has yielded a variety of wild signature guitars, but none are quite so eye-catching as this Dead lightning bolt-adorned Premier DC semi-hollow, now offered at half-price - down from $999 to $499 - at Sweetwater.

Available for a limited time only ahead of the Black Friday guitar deals bonanza, this electric is kitted out with a red, white and blue finish across the top of its all-maple body, while the back is all blue.

It also features a crowd-pleasing C-shaped neck and a set of classic-voiced humbuckers, while the guitar’s center block limits any pesky feedback at high volumes.
