Hi all 
Been playing my Fender Strat the last couple of years. For Amp I use Spark.
I'm now set on getting my first PRS guitar as my second guitar.
I play pop and blues and whatever my guitar teacher gives me. I mostly use the neck pickup which is my favorite on clean/edge of breakup, but use the bridge for lead tones and blues.
I'm unsure which model I should get- DGT or Silver Sky SE.
There isn't any PRS DGT SE around me I can try, but I did try the SS SE - loved the neck, the guitar felt super comfortable, however the pickups weren't impressive and the guitar felt somewhat cheap.
The pros of the SS - its comfort, remains in the strat-territory which I love, could be modified with other single coil pickups. I can imagine myself using this guitar a lot mainly due to its ease of playing, although it doesn't bring me a "better" sound compared to the Strat I have.
On the other hand there's the DGT - I've read out of the SE models it craftmanship outstands (surely better than the SS), its got Humbuckers with a coil split making it an overall versatile instrument, cons are mainly how it looks (not a fan of the design tbh), low resale value (not too sure many people are interested in this guitar) and I'm not too sure if I'd like humbucking tones or if the single coil split is as good as single coil guitar for that chime tone I love (but already got from my strat)
People who tried both guitars - what do you think? is the DGT as comfortable as the SS SE? how is its single coil sounds? would it fit my playing preferences?
Or is there another model that might fit me better?
