PRS DGT - Faded Whale Blue with Hard Shell Case
PRS DGT: Vintage Tone Out Of The Box
The DGT (David Grissom Trem) is the result of more than 20 years of collaboration between Paul Reed Smith and David Grissom. The DGT is based on the McCarty platform with a unique DGT neck shape, taller frets, special pickups, and a revised control layout. Grissom and Paul spent a year A/B-ing more than forty sets of pickups before nailing the vintage-voice of DGT humbuckers. When paired with individual volume controls for each pickup and a push/pull master tone control that operates the coil taps, DGT pickups provide versatility and articulation.
PRS Patented Tremolo, Gen III
Meticulously designed for sonic fidelity, player ergonomics, and revolutionary tuning stability, the PRS Patented Tremolo, Gen III, is a standout feature of the DGT. This tremolo system ensures that your guitar stays in tune even after extensive use, allowing you to focus on your performance without worrying about intonation issues. The bridge's design also enhances the instrument's overall resonance and sustain, making it a vital component of the DGT's rich tonal palette.
PRS Phase III Locking Tuners
The DGT is equipped with PRS Phase III Locking Tuners, which combine modern locking technology with vintage elegance. These tuners are designed to promote tone transfer, resulting in a louder, more resonant instrument. The locking mechanism ensures quick and stable tuning adjustments, providing reliability during live performances and recording sessions.
PRS DGT Pickups
The DGT pickups deliver beautiful rhythm and solo tones with a distinctive Texas voice. These pickups were carefully developed to offer a vintage sound right out of the box. With individual volume controls for each pickup and a push/pull master tone control for coil tapping, the DGT provides exceptional versatility and articulation, making it suitable for a wide range of musical styles.
