New DGT day!
I already have an amazing DGT that handles the standard DGT sounds which are warm, articulate, with a vintage vibe and all so I wanted to make this one my heavy hitter. Out come the DGT p'ups and in go a brand new set of Dragons that I scored from PRS's pickup sell off a few weeks ago. These are the same p'ups that I had sent to Chris for his shootout.
It took me many emails and inquiries to everyone to figure out how to wire them in but once I got the soldering iron out it was actually pretty straightforward. If anyone else takes on this I could draw out a diagram of how they get wired in. Now this guitar sounds amazing to me with a very hot and crunchy tone that cleans up surprisingly well when you roll off the volume. I am extremely curious to hear Chris's take on these but I am very happy with them for my needs. I also dig the 'Navarro' vibe it gives the guitars looks :)
Other than the p'ups this Standard model is as terrific as the regular DGT, different tone when stock due to the all mahogany but this i felt made it better suited to the upgrades I wanted for it. Very happy with it!
I got this awesome new DGT Standard from Derek at Morgan Guitars. This is my second deal with him, he supplied my Blistertone, and I cannot say enough good about his pricing and customer service, even emailing me after the delivery to make sure I like it and am happy with the deal.
