    My DGT isn’t the guitar I play for every gig, nor is it always my go-to guitar for noodling and fooling around… but it is *the* best guitar I own, and possibly the most perfect guitar I’ve played, both in objective terms like reliability and consistency, and subjective like effortless feel and encouraging playability. It’s the one I’d run to save in a house fire. It’s the one that makes me feel the least limited, be it physically or emotionally, as a player. And I worked damn hard to pay it off for years, for all these reasons 😅 To think there will be an affordable version of the guitar that has done so much for me, with the potential to do so much for so many others, is truly wonderful. Awesome work, team. 🚀

    I'm a huge SE fan... own two, and I've owned a 1992 EG III, which I gave to my 13 year old grandson, thinking he'd probably return it within a week or so... He didn't. It inspired him to the point where today he's a Frost scholar at the University of Miami in Coral Gables, FL studying music production technology... and jazz guitar! Thanks, Paul! Oh, and I play my SEs -- a custom 22 semi hollow body and a Santana -- almost daily as a dedicated, 76 year old, bedroom rocker!

    I had a core DGT standard back in 2008. Had it for four years. I could get any sound out of the guitar I wanted. Tele single coil, Les Paul humbucker sounds and PRS humbucker sounds(full dynamic). In 2011 I traded that guitar away and have regretted it EVERY DAY since! Being retired, I don’t have the money I had while working, this SE model is one I can afford now. From the sounds of it, this guitar will be like the standard I once had…….. Thank you guys for bringing this DGT to market!

    I bought my 1st PRS a year ago. I've been playing fot 40 years. I wish I had tried one sooner. I got a semi-hollow SE "Black Gold" limited edition. What a great guitar. Flawless.The pickups are awesome. So many times on pups with coil tapping, they do single or double coil acceptably but the other is just not good. That is not the case on mine. And the highly figured wood is really beautiful. Playability is awesome. Even better than my Tele Elite.
    I've had many guitars come and go from my collection but this one has found its forever home.

    I was always a Fender/Gibson guy. Then I discovered Shecter made overseas and was impressed with the fit and finish. I then brought my first PRS, a used Custom 24 made in 2010 for the 46th anniversary of Guitar Center. The quality of the build on that guitar blew me away and the 10 top is amazing. But I was able to get it only because of a windfall. I wanted more PRS, but not at core prices. I then discovered the SE series of guitars. I now own a 245Se, a Bernie MarsdenSe, and most recently a 2022 PaulsGuitarSe all killers. And to think that this past weekend I was thinking, it would be great if they made a DGT-SE. And here we are! Can wait to try one out. Thank you PRS!

    The SE line becomes ever more appealing. I have two cores: an Artist Package Tremonti and a Hollowbody II Piezo. I also have a 2019 SE SVN, into which I put SD Alpha/Omega pickups. The quality of the SE line is incredible (not as big a fan of the Chinese acoustics though). I want another, and I own some of the finest core models you can buy! I picked up a Custom 24 SE at Music Villa in Bozeman, MT and nearly bought it on the spot because of how well it played; how well it was made. They're just amazing instruments for the money.

  • @gerbenloohuis8784

My other is a Whale Blue DGT Wood Library with a Korean neck and Cocobolo board. My favorite one is the one I’m playing at the time. Tonally, the DGT is very versatile and just sounds fantastic through my SuperSonic.

  • @MichaelRinus
    @MichaelRinus 10 місяців тому

    I just bought a DGT SE for various reasons and it is insanely good for the money I paid, but I got say, attention to detail in production does not reach 100%. Until now I fixed a glitch regarding the nut, as the G-String was jumping in its place and made nice pling noises. Easy fix with UV hardening superglue, though unnecessary to happen. On the other hand the neck was straight out flat. Ok we have winter now and you never know when it has been shipped to storage in the first place, but I have to work on that, too.
    Luckily and I a really grateful for that, you publish the factory specs so I guess I’ll get it in that ballpark.
    Until now some strings see to hit the fretboard where there shouldn’t and I hope that’ll be not more work than necessary. It also feels - and I can be wrong - that the upper frets maybe overlap on the part of the neck which points to the floor. They are polished perfectly and that maybe even intentional(?) as a flip of the fretboard while bending down will not happen until you really overdo it. Octave purity is reached 100% btw. So it feels they finished it a tad early and didn’t really check “if all was right” regarding the nut fault?
    So some stuff to fix on my side for now until I’d say it’s as perfect as it can be for around 1000 Bucks.
    For the good part: I love the overall quality and especially the feel, sustain, reactivity to playing and the versatility in tone!
    I usually have trouble liking mahogany body guitars and until now there was just one which talked to me (old 80s Aria Pro II), but this one? Fantastic :)
    It has a mix of a carrying tone and still a very snappy attack which is really inspiring to play more dynamic or sometimes just less and let chords ring.
    I think I will be happy with it soon, just not in the first place.
    Now I’ll be ogling again at the Emerald green version of the top of the shelf line which I was thinking about to buy recently, but somebody else was faster. Led to buying a JSGD2, which isn’t that bad either, but a totally different beast.
    Anyway, mimimi from my side or not, the DGT SE is a reaaaaally nice guitar, which might just need a tad more quality control for even better consistence. David wouldn’t have liked this one off the wall, I am sure…
