I'm playing atmospheric/noisey style music atm, and I felt a bit self conscious about a flamey guitar for that style of music. Nobody else cares, why should I?
The DGT gives me great single coil tones, a trem that doesnt go out of tune and it feedbacks really well.
Just wish I'd have gone for a standard.
The dual volume pots sold it to me, even if they are back to front for my tastes.
I could be wrong here though. Just now starting to look at PRS guitars again.
Obvious comment is to the trem - but the pick-ups are significantly different as well - Plus the neck carve/profile but that certainly is a matter of taste
I asked David about his pickups and he said none of his guitars ever had the stock pickups in them, right from the get go he was experimenting with Paul. I asked if the ones in his own DGT's were stock and he smiled and laughed in a way that said not really. He then said every guitar he gets goes straight to Ed Reynolds in Austin who replaces the nut and 'attends' to the frets etc etc. Like most pro's he's incredibly particular and exacting.
I never understood the hype either until I played a Private Stock-built Ltd Ed DGT a few weeks back. Bought it on the spot. A spectacular guitar in every way. Rings like a bell, super resonant, and endlessly versatile.
I need to try a maple capped DGT too...
