I drank the PRS kool aid, and it was tasty!
Beeeyoutifull! Especially when you change the trem tip.
Yes, that began almost immediately. While I wouldn't mind taking it to rehearsal, taking it to a gig may take some... time. OR maybe not... as I am finding the thing so easy to play (I'm sure alot of that is enthusiasm) I may not NOT be able to gig it. "They are meant to PLAY", right?Wow wow wow! That is incredibly gorgeous! The family connections make it even sweeter.
Now of course, you have the potential of the dreaded "this guitar is too nice to take_______" syndrome.
Enjoy!
Hey! Mr. DG30 haha! I've been looking at those... I think I've come to the conclusion that it's probably too loud to get the real goods at home volumes (without an attenuator), but I've read all your posts on the DG30. (and that's a subject for the amp forum... )Easily the most beautiful Core DGT I've EVER seen!
It's fantastic.
Hard to say whether it's too loud or not. I've learned how to dial it in for great sound at moderate volume over the years; however, one person's 'too loud at home volumes' is another person's 'geez, you must play awfully quietly'.Hey!

It's a relative question.
I have a DG30. While is absolutely sings when dialed up, it does have a good "quieter" tone. I've used it for band practice, where other players are using just acoustic instruments, and it was "ok enough". (I will say the HXDA is a bit easier to dial in that "quiet tone", for some reason.)Hard to say whether it's too loud or not.

The HXDA has a lot of compression, where the DG is a less compressed amp, at least the way I dial them in. That's my guess as to why.I have a DG30.

Sounds like a reasonable explanation!The HXDA has a lot of compression, where the DG is a less compressed amp, at least the way I dial them in. That's my guess as to why.
Yeah, now I know... it's not a "tad fat", it's perfect! I've never been so comfortable with a new, unfamiliar (not 1990 Charvel shred or Fender Modern C) neck before.“Tad fat neck?!” Man, that sounds like heaven.
Beautiful DGT!
NiceI've never purchased a guitar that I had to do NOTHING to, out of the box. Well, I did loosen the truss rod a 1/4 turn, but that's it. She's everything I expected. Best coil splits I've heard (I have a tele and strat to compare). It cost a kidney, but I understand why these high-end PRSi bring the prices they do. Oh- and I like poly; to be honest, I like that's it's so durable, and I don't have to worry about "which polish is ok" to use on it or anything... but I have to say, this new PRS "nitro process" (you guys know the details better than me), feels amazing.
I actually used inheritance money I recently got (mom finally passed, dad passed 26 years ago), so I feel like my parents bought it for me- a bucket list item.
And I finally got to buy from Wildwood- Lord knows I've watched enough of their videos! LOL!
I got Yellow Tiger, only partially because I've always dug Grissom's. But I almost waited for a yellow one or blue one. But we also recently lost our pup, Stevie (Ray Vaughan), and he was a brindle greyhound. I think the yellow tiger is reminiscent of the brindle coloring. Debating whether or not to change the bar tip to cream.
Let's see if the embed code works...
