I've always been a "Gibson guy"...I played a McCarty 594, and I was sold. It's the best guitar I've ever played. It has nothing that irks me, it's just so comfortable to play, sounds amazing, and I actually play better using it. My Gibsons have been slowly getting sold off... That DGT is stunning and sounds beautiful!

My experience with PRS: I am one of the 200 who got a Robben Ford signature … and brought it back for sale after owning it for a few months. Luckily no one picked it up and I took it back last week. So it had chosen me and just coming back from a gig I feel it teaches me to play .-) These guitars play perfectly and have the utmost quality standards. I will take it as it sounds and how I get along with it. Gibson Murphy's and Fender Master Builds are much more layers' guitars these days than any PRS … and Paul is certainly one of the most innovative guys in the community.

We definitely are!

The thing that finally sold me on PRS (being in the "Its for lawyers/doctors" camp) is thinking about how when in the middle of a ripping solo, your band mates turn to look at u, and they dont see that, they just see their guitar player playing awesome licks on a crazy awesome/beautiful looking guitar, and i think that pays a lot of respect to the music u are playing, it elevates and inspires everyone in the band, not just u. Ever since i had that realization, it made sense.

Hater gonna hate. Some people think you have to rip on a super cheap guitar to be a guitar hero. PRS are for guitar players.

I have a 2011 DGT and a 2015 Custom 24 . Both are better than my Les Pauls and SG. I love having 24 frets on the C24, it is also a unique “fat back” model meaning it’s the same thickness as the DGT and thicker than other C24s. It’s pickups sound really good, but my DGT has the sweetest, best sounding, pick ups I have ever heard. Every time I have not played it for a while and pick it up I can’t help but smile when I hear those bell-like, chimey, pickups.

I had a PRS "find" me as well. I was recently gifted (long story), a 97' Santana model. I've never owned a PRS guitar before and I am surprised by how much I like it. It isn't a guitar I see myself spending over 4k for, but have to agree they are incredibly well made and highly playable. There are so many stigmas associated with playing guitar that I agree, you simply have to not give a shit about what anyone thinks; play the music and guitars you love and you'll find your audience.

That's the thing the PRS guitars are so dialled in. PRS have there own thing going and they really have a good quality model for everyone. What a lovely Instrument.

This is EXACTLY what I want. Outstanding video. I’ll also look up your shop. I’m not far from the NJ border.

I never watched Jeff until now and he is spot on with several things in this video. The weight thing. The fact that PRS’s quality control is so tight that they all sound alike without much variance from guitar to guitar. And the thing about us wanting the prs to BE a Fender or a Gibson is true.

I have a first-year (08) DGT with a 10 top. It's heavy, at 9.5 lbs. I won't part with it. Being a bassist, the weight-with the proper strap-is no problem. It's a beast! I also have an '07 Singlecut Trem with a 10 top. About 9 lbs. It moves more when I play, being lighter, and sounds brighter and less dense. It also sounds fantastic. Both are impeccably built and play very well. I have two other PRS guitars-a Studio and a McCarty hardtail. The DGT I would keep if I could only have one, hands down. It just wails. Nice vid, Jeff. Man, I love your playing.

Play what works for you, it‘s like a pen that help uns to play and wright music, nothing else. It‘s not the brand at the end of the headstock, it‘s a human player with his instrument.

Congrats on finding an inspiring instrument. That's not an easy endeavor. I had a '97 McCarty DC for 10 years. I dug it's feel and it did sound good. Something was missing for me. A member of a forum I belong to brought his, first year, '08 DGT Gold Top over to try some of my amps. This was in '08. I played the DGT and dug the tone of that bridge pickup sound. I'm not a trem player but, had to search for those pickups used. I found a '08 set of DGT pickups for sale in early '09. Snatched 'em up and put 'em in my McCarty. Boom, I was now truly inspired. I played that McCarty for several years after as my #1. That's coming from a Gibson lifer. Well, became a single dad of my teenage daughter after divorcing my wife. Most of my gear had to be let go to help support my daughter. That McCarty w/DGT pickups was lost. There are only 4 guitars I parted with in my 56 years that I really want back. The '97 McCarty is one of 'em. Today, my two #1s are both Gibson SGs. A Junior and a Standard '61 model. The only thing about many PRS guitars that turn me off is "too much bling". That's all. BTW, I got my first PRS in '91. Well before the internet informed us all what's good or not! lol Cheers Jeff. 🍻

I own 2 core McCarty 594s, a single cut and a Hollowbody II, both great guitars. The 58/15 pickups are great, the necks feel nice, vintage pattern, a little chunky but not too big.

Congratulations, that's a beautiful guitar! My fourth PRS is a DGT. I started out with Strats and Teles for a few years. The first PRS I bought was a CU22, still have it. Played it almost exclusively for 10 years. Next came the 594, awesome guitar and played it about 3 years. Next was the Silver Sky, great guitar but just never bonded with it. Then came the DGT and I haven't looked back in the last couple years. The neck is perfect, it did take a minute to get use to the large frets. Tremolo is perfect. Pickups have so many sound options, they do all I want to hear. Let the critics rag on PRS, I don't care and don't really care to play anything else. Just caught a Grissom show at the Saxon Pub in Austin and had him sign the electronics cover plate on my DGT, so it isn't going anywhere! I look forward to hearing the DGT in more of your videos!

Wow. That's a beauty. Robben Ford, John McLaughlin and, well David Grissom play PRS, so that would be my answer to the snobs out there. Congratulations

Right!?!

I have one of the original (2nd year maybe...) McCarty models that I fell in love with. (The older coil-tap is nowhere near as great as the newer versions though). That said, I've purchased a PRS SE 277 baritone to fill that sonic gap in my tool kit, then a PRS SE Paul's Guitar. Amazing guitars at a price that allows me to play the heck out of them without the feeling that I need to be "as careful" with them. I have never liked "Relic'd" guitars and like to take care of all of my instruments..... but if one gets a little "ding" I would prefer that "ding" to occur on a more affordable guitar.... 1/3 the price of the American equivalent. They are tools for me... and the PRS guitars, regardless of country of origin, work very well for me. That one's a beauty! I may be looking for one of the new SE DGT models after they've been out for a while....and maybe find a return or demo model! Love to save money when adding tools to my kit.

That's a beautiful guitar, Jeff. Congrats! I've never played a bad PRS. They don't speak to me in the same way my Suhrs do, but if I was looking for something different, they would certainly be a brand I'd consider.

Hi Jeff, I totally agree. If you find one you keep it. I make guitars, renovate old ones. Need to upload some videos. There is something magical in some of them. You just do not want to sell it ever! Other are good, but someone else may feel this thing better. Its a strange thing really.

Btw. This PRS is amazing

Once I got my PRS I stopped wanting any other guitar. I fully know the “clarity” you’re talking about. Notes have a bell like quality. Plus it held strong for 16 years before I needed a follow up set up work. I still have a strat and it’s fine. “PRS perfected the guitar” - Mikael Akerfeldt

Awesome and they are their own thing. I love my Gibsons Fenders and this one.

I love it! Probably one if the best looking PRs guitars I’ve ever seen. They play themselves. Bring out the best in your playing. At least that’s my experience with them. But I love my strats and Gibson’s!! They are just different!

Thank you. And yeah we can like all of them!

Recently got an SE Hollowbody II which is faultless and has its own sound, which has a certain clarity to it. Really enjoying it. Would love a DGT!

David loves the new DGT SE. super reasonably priced.

I have always wanted a PRS since the 80’s when they came out. I have always ended up with Gibsons or Fenders, then Franken-Fenders I have put together. I do really like unfinished necks. Torrified Maple seems great? The clarity of the pickups sound nice, though I have mostly leaned towards Single coils. Truth is I have a few great guitars. All with their quirks, but totally serviceable. I would love to have a good Humbucker guitar again…who knows? Probably would put together another Parts-caster?

Welcome aboard!

I've "nearly" bought a PRS so many times over the years but never quite got THAT connection. Today I'd love a DGT but honestly a lot of the finishes look a bit like furniture to my eye and I can't stand book-match tops that don't match across the join - that one you have is possibly the best looking DGT I've ever seen . Sounds ok too in your hands😜

Beautiful touch and style! however, that tone is 75% you 25% DGT. Very nice guitar, thanks for the insight.

Thank you. One of my tunes called “Marta”.

Hi Jeff! After playing so many years with a heavy right hand and too much pressure on my left hand, I realized that almost all the players I dig (including you in my top 5 list) play with the opposite strategy. If this is something you consider relevant to note, it would be great to have a video showing how to achieve that and to take advantage with it. Beautiful guitar, but anyway the tone is great mainly because you are not ruining it with your picking hand.

Hey! Thank you. That is an excellent video topic that I will definitely do. It is very important, I used to play really hard on both hands and had to work to sort it out. Economy picking really helped me. Thank you for the idea. 🙏🏻

After the live, I had to waltz over here to this video. 😂🤦‍♂️ This thing is a spectacular thing of beauty

HI Fabulous guitar Jeff you were talking about "ideal" weight I have the possibility of having one at 7.46 lbs and another at 8.2 lbs both new but I haven't had the opportunity to try them on Better to take the light one or the 8.2 lbs one for the sound (if that has an influence) best regards

Damn that intro was legit metal
