Could not be more different from my DGT. Still getting used to it. These PUPs sustain 4ever. I generally keep my volume at 10 but with these turning down to 5 gives me a level that works better for my style of music an playing. The guitar is brighter and clearly the PUPS are MUCH hotter than the DGT. I find the pattern thin neck easier for me to play high on the neck. I thought it might be an issue relative to the DGT. While different, I find I like this neck profile works as well. Need more time with it, but I like the idea of having one vintage sounding PRS and one that is very modern.
