I have a 97 CE 24 with HFS/VB pups and an 01 McCarty standard with Mc pups. I love both guitars, which are obviously very different animals.
I’ve been having some serious GAS for a DGT, but I can’t find one to play anywhere. I think the neck shape would be comfortable for me, as I like both the WT and McCarty necks, and the control layout will be fine, as I’m used to my LP. I’ve listened to a lot of clips, and really like the tones from the DGT.
My concern is the larger fretwire. I’m fine with 11s if they really play like 10s on these guitars, but I just don’t know how I’ll feel about the larger frets. I’ve had plenty of guitars in the past with jumbo frets, and I prefer smaller frets in general.
If I could just play one, it’d make things much simpler, but, since they cost 2K minimum, I’m not comfortable buying by reputation. So, can you guys/gals give me some insight and advice?
Thanks...
