First up is my 2008 Goldtop with new nut and a PTC installed first run 57/08 in the neck, a 2010 DGT2011 with old Phase IIs and new moons, and then a CFM Standard.

Those DGT Standards have been a huge hit. They sound amazing so I shouldn't be surprised they're so popular. FrostBlue Metallic is the way to go!

You guys are not helping! I just bought a P22 and now I'm looking at DGT Standards... Red with Birds. Obviously the BEST combo! :D

Very happy with my DGT Standard - None More Black.
http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/g354/Fox9377/DSC_0076.jpg
Awesome guitar! I love it so much that if I succumb to my 408 GAS, I'd probably take a standard as well.
Oh and PRETTY PLEASE PRS: make the stoptail an option on the DGT , uh, DGS :D

Ha ha! Indeed!
Shawn - I'm not suprised the DGT Standards have been such a hit, they do indeed sound amazing. I've noticed that a few people who've owned both versions are selling the maple top and keeping the all-hog. That says a lot.
I'm guessing it'll become a standard model in the near future...

Hi guys, this is my first post. I got this beautiful 10 Top last week ~ SN: 12188423
It's the best guitar I've ever played and I have a few custom shop Gibsons and Fenders. I want more PRS now! :)
I'll take some better pics, this doesn't quite cut it to be honest.

I have to say that I'm really pleased with it. I carved it at a party on Saturday afternoon and the rest of the people gave it a big yawn..
I got it home and my sweetie put a candle in it and - HOLY GREAT PUMPKIN CHARLIE BROWN! - I was so blown away that I almost peed myself. (I'll deny that if anyone repeats that :) )
Then I took some pics of it and it just has the coolest firey glow. It remindes me a little of the 'Ring of Fire' animations they do when talking about the Pacific vocanic zones...

Awesome pics guys, I'm just wondering if any of you guys have cleaned the pickup covers on your DGTs??
My faded blue which is really quite new (posted earlier on this thread) has discoloured on the bridge cover and I really want to clean it up. What should I use?
Usually I don't bother with things like this bit the brushed nickel covers look great when clean so I'd like to keep them like that really. :)
Any advice would be appreciated.

Still, the DGT is the perfect guitar for me. Love these latest additions!

This is my kind of Private Stock... Well Played...
But it isn't enough that you own the one green DGT I really want, but now you had to go and produce a private stock DGT in goldtop with is also what I would want to do? :o
Either you are a biter, or you REALLY get it! :adore:

DGStoptail on the left.
On the right is a Willcutt DGT with a burly, swirly, one piece top. This one is a workhorse and sounds amazing! 11 ga. strings, tuned down a 1/2 step, plugged into the the Bad Cat Lynx, it sounds like... well, Grissom! FAT, greasy, chewy, nice sustain.

The one in the middle is a MEGSIII - a hybrid MEIII and DGStoptail. DGT neck, and controls.

Woundtight/How would you describe the difference in tone between the stoptail vs tremolo DGT?

The difference in tone between a DGT and these particular PS DGTs with a stoptail is very pronounced. The materials are different, I have narrowfields on the one guitar... The Pomegranate one sounds a little bit closer to an Artist V than a DGT, the ebony is pretty snappy. The other thing is that I have fairly light gauge strings on the stoptail guitars.
The burl Willcutt DGT has 11s on the bottom and tens on the top and it is tuned down a 1/2 step. I think the trem makes the guitar more resonant and fuller sounding. I love this guitar!
All things being the same, I think the trem and heavy strings make a huge impact on the tone. I need the trem in order to play with heavier strings. Along with the taller frets, It makes bending easier and I can still play pretty fast and with a certain amount of dexterity.
The stoptails are nice, but I would not venture over to a stoptail until I had a couple DGTs under my belt first...
I just picked up this bad boy and I have it strung with the heavy 11s on the bottom and 10s on top and I have it tuned to concert pitch. FAT sound!!

Beautiful guitar! I am seriously considering adding a DGT to the top of my list. Thanks for sharing your input. :biggrin:

I will never be without a DGT in my stable.

I have probably the most played DGT..well, at least the most worn. The guy who had it before me played 4 nights a week and held it really high so it rubbed the lower back edge something fierce. The cool thing is that he rubbed the top finish a lot too.. Still looks cool, but if you run your finger across the top you can feel the flames! I have talked to the PTC about doing a complete refinsh/repaint but I'm not sure if it's cost effective. Who am I kidding? Not sure I could be without this guitar for the 2 months it would take to do it! The other cool thing about this guitar is it feels 30yrs old because of all the playing. Love it..A DGT is the only guitar I would trade my 513 for.
