I have been looking for a used DGT in very good conditions because I like the neck and the pickups, the way they sound as humbuckers, I don't really care for the single coil split. I did find an exceptionally good one almost pristine 2012 a 10 top no less for the amount of money I was planning to spend. (see attached pics.)
BUT
I am not down with the way David Grissom has commissioned his control layout. I mean first of all 2 volume knobs is no use to me but even then, he's got them the opposite way than the rather logical way around, i.e. first volume is for the bridge p/u the next is for the neck and then you have a tone control that does the old push/pull malarky and finally a 3way pickup selector.
NOT IN MY HOME GRISSOM!
Yeah he's a great player and I do rate him but that control layout it's messing with my cave man logic.
To me the best sounding pickup combinations were those of the mid 80's with a rotary switch allowing in-between sound similar to a Strat, and such, plus a must have for me was that gorgeous Sweet Switch.
