I think the main difference a regular stratocaster sounds more brighter or brittle but a silver sky to me sounds thicker or rather crisp

@@Paul-D The neck on the DGT is out there on its own when it comes to PRS's that I've owned. I've never quite got on with the pattern-thin PRS necks, whereas I'd class this as more of a C-shape and a little fatter. Incredibly comfortable for me. By comparison with Gibson Custom-Shop LP necks, I'd place it more in the 59/60 camp rather than 58. I have a couple of lovely 60's style Custom-Shop Fenders - a 61 Strat and a 63 Tele - and I'd say that with the coil-split on the DGT I can get 95% of the way to both. The split switched to the neck is very close to my Strat and bridge, close to my Tele. In humbucker-mode it's really close to a vintage Les Paul with low-wind pickups and more traditional wiring-loom. Would I sell either of my CS Fenders or 96 Les Paul with Lollar Imperials ? No, that would be sacrilegious. But if I was only allowed to keep one electric guitar and sell the rest I'd keep my DGT and sell all my Fenders and Gibsons. Hope that helps. :)

It's a great instrument.

Exactly my hearing. Strat more core, PRS too scooped. The Strat has the look and sound...of a Strat.

Two lovely guitars, PRS sounded a bit lighter to me bit thinner, does the 3 a side type head stock effect how much you have to bend the string because the over all length-between the two fixed points-is shorter on the PRS, so does it make you bend everything a bit sharp until you get used to it? Wonder how a reverse Jimmy headstock would compare to a standard one?

I bought one of those SE guitars and there was so much foul and filthy wood dust in its nethers and the weight was off by such a distinct point that I sent it back and told them to F off. Not for me. How am I suppose to sound like the man who made the Stratocaster a recognized paradigm and never find my own voice with such a shite set up - I didn’t even mention all of the fast food wrappers and cigarette butts that were stuffed up under the pick guard. For real though - that is the correct color. There are a couple of colors that they nailed on that guitar. It’s almost like fender’s sonic grey (I believe) but I see it as a slightly cooler grey. Makes me wonder what options were tested into the warmer, more red than blue greys. If I were in the market for a new Stratocaster, which I am not, I think I would be going for that exact SE - maybe the sand color,, but probably the grey. Nice vid guys.

You pick the version of Strat that costs exponentially more money than the SE? That's kind of goofy and a little backwards. Compare the SE to the guitar it competes with, the identically priced MIM Strat Player Series. Compare the Core model to the American made Strat if you're going to do a high end comparison like that. i get the reasoning you guys say why you went with what you did. But i think even people buying the MIM strats would be buying one in hopes itncomes close to a 63 or 64 strat sound

I have to disagree I’m afraid. When the PRS SE Silver Sky launched, I WAS one of those people who mocked the look of it - Frankensteincaster - without playing it or giving it a fair fighting chance. So, when a number of UK retailers dropped the price on it to £599, I went ahead and ordered one up. I’ve been playing Strats for over 35 years and I really wanted to be surprised at how good it was, compared to a Fender; but I just couldn’t like it. The plastic tuning nuts aside - which are a pretty poor option, considering the original price was £895 - the pickups are incredibly thin and tinny and when pushed through my Bass Breaker or Katana, were so muddy, you could barely distinguish each string. A very poor copy/representation of a Strat in my opinion and apart from all the hype and dribbling from retailers who obviously want to push this model because of sales, I cannot see Fender anytime soon, quaking in their pants. The colour options are very limited and the ones that are available such as Moon White (Yellow), Dragon Fruit, Ever Green and Stone Blue, I’m pretty sure have been given these fancy names, in a desperate attempt at covering up the drab nature of them. Even at £599 - which is the price I paid for mine - I felt like I was playing exactly what is stamped on the reverse of the headstock, an Indonesian Strat copy. The PRS SE Silver Sky lasted all of two weeks in my possession and has now been traded in for a Japanese Strat, which is absolutely perfect. In my own humble opinion, the PRS is over priced, over hyped and is a poor attempt of a variation on a classic Fender, that didn’t need changing.
