I have both an Emperor Regent ('07), a Broadway ('10), and a D'Angelico EXL-1 ('07). I think they are all fine guitars, with the D'Angelico slightly ahead of the other two. BUT I find myself using the Broadway as my "go to" axe more and more. I have a brother who is has been a professional for over 40 years,and has a number of very high end guitars (not archtops). He's a total snob about guitars, and just won't stoop to playing anything "cheap" (like my Samick HF-650). But he was won over by the Regent and especially the D'Angelico (he hasn't had a chance to check out my Broadway yet). He could not believe they were not multi-thousand dollar guitars, just raved about both of them. I am a lover and conniosseur of inexpensive guitars, and take pride in my collection of less expensive archtops. If I collected high-priced axes, well, the "collection" would have to be pretty small, like ONE.
