  • “When it comes to the tone and features, we did most of the heavy lifting more than a decade ago with the DG Custom 30. I‘ve really got to give it to Doug Sewell and PRS for how thoughtfully the DGT 15 was designed. Doug was very meticulous and creative with updating some of the features while remaining true to the DNA of the Custom 30. From the first time I played through it, I was blown away,” - David Grissom

    It was a great honour to meet David when I picked up my DGT Core and to have him both play it and sign the electronics cover. Looking forward to trying this amp when it becomes available here in Canada

    David is not a shredder or speed king, but he has a style and tone that I literally could listen to for hours. Although I'm a 2 channel amp with effects loop guitarist, I have a huge appreciation for his range and shades using a single channel amp and the guitar's controls! This is not an amp for me, but it sounds amazing, especially when David is playing through it (or them, as was the case live here!).

    Thank you for adding reverb! So many amplifiers don't have it. If they don't, then I simply don't purchase it. I've never understood why manufacturers leave it off. I will not implement a pedal for that purpose. The tremelo is somehting I normally wouldn't use but it can only spawn new ideas and techniques...if it means sounding more like David, then I'm ok with that. Man, what a slick player!

      Not every amp is a reverb amp. Plus there's enough aftermarket stuff now that it really shouldn't matter. If the amp you want doesn't have it, someone likely makes a version of the same amp WITH it.

      Most of my favorite amps do not have reverb. I have a Fender 6G15 outboard that works with any amp. I feel about tremolo the same way you do about reverb...if an amp doesn't have tremolo, that amp had better be GOOD

      🤦 You don't know amps if you're wondering if it can do those 2 things that are at opposite ends of the spectrum.
      An amp that sounds like that will NEVER have Fender cleans. 🤦
      That's like asking if a Bassman can also sound like a Deluxe Reverb 🤣 🤦🤦🤦

    I love everything about this amp and I know my DGT would sound spectacular with it. But…. I have never owned a 15 watt amp that could stand up to a loud drummer. There’s not enough headroom for me with 15 watts in a live situation. I already own too many amps as it is so I couldn’t buy it to record with. I do hope the price point is attractive enough so many players can step up to a nice amp, though.

    Gonna be honest here....I see no reason for the high cut control to even exist. And this amp seems to be lacking in the complex detailed sparkle and harmonics that I hear out of ALL my favorite amps including my vintage Marshall Superleads, even with their volumes turned way down. I'm just not impressed. It's a decent amp, but it's missing the magic that makes me want it. My opinion. Other people will have their own.

      @Turboy65 We respect your opinion, but we'd like to encourage you to get out and play one in person. Take your guitar with you, spend some time getting to know the amp, and dial in the top end the way you like. The controls are there for you to sculpt your tone. We're willing to bet that will change your mind. & If it doesn't, that's fine, but give it a playthrough and let us know what you think afterward. Cheers!
