You know how a "certain someone" here loves the Santana? I'm down with that. Great guitars.
But I'm forming a very special bond with my DGT. In fact, I'm a bit surprised by how much I love playing it. I figured it'd be a niche thing in my studio, a guitar that I could make sound a bit like a Tele or Strat (close enough for my purposes, anyway) in addition to the McCarty kind of things I spend most of my time with, plus all the PRS touches.
However, it's become the essential PRS here at Studio Craptastic. Surprise! It's the ideal inanimate object/human romance!
I try to rotate through my little handful of guitars on a daily basis, but each day I lean a little bit more toward the DGT than my PS guitars. That's saying something - I adore those guitars.
I kept the stock .011s on it, and got used to them very quickly. It seems I'm a manly man even among the manly men here - who knew? I always figured my light touch, no-metal-zone and obsession with studio decor ruled that out.
The neck fits my hand really well, even though it's different from the others. I no longer even notice the bigger frets. It just feels right. Hell, it IS right.
The tone is to die for.
[Author's Note: At my age 'to die for' might be a bit too literal an expression but it does sound stellar.]
Maybe I got lucky and simply landed a winner. Or maybe they're all that good. I've only played a few, so I have no idea. I sure like this one. The DGT is a wonderful guitar. I wish I'd gotten one sooner.
