Cons
- −Premium pricing ($3,499+) places it in custom shop territory for competing brands
- −Vintage-voiced pickups may lack the output and aggression modern rock players expect

- −Some players find PRS guitars too polished and lacking in character compared to vintage alternatives
The Verdict
The DGT is PRS at their best—immaculate build quality, musical pickups, and a neck that feels like it was custom-carved for your hand. Grissom spec’d this for blues, rock, and everything in between, and it delivers. But at $3,500+, you’re paying PRS prices, which means you could buy two excellent guitars from other brands. The DGT justifies its cost with fit, finish, and tone that’s consistent across every example—no hunting for ‘the good one’ like you do with Gibson or Fender. Best for players who value craftsmanship and reliability over vintage mojo or brand heritage.
