The Paul Reed Smith DGT (David Grissom Trem) – Faded Blue Jean is a stunning and meticulously crafted solidbody electric guitar that embodies the rich tone, refined playability, and aesthetic boldness PRS is known for. Designed in collaboration with acclaimed session and touring guitarist David Grissom, the DGT model is the result of years of refinement and fine-tuning, making it a true player’s instrument. This particular version, adorned in the eye-catching Faded Blue Jean finish.

At its core, the DGT is built from a combination of a carved maple top and mahogany back, giving the guitar a warm and resonant tonal foundation, paired with the articulation and snap of maple. The violin carve on the top adds a graceful contour and elevated elegance, enhancing both looks and ergonomics. The body is joined to a one-piece mahogany neck with PRS’s signature set-neck construction, delivering exceptional sustain and a seamless feel up the fretboard.

The neck itself is crafted to David Grissom’s exact specifications, featuring the comfortable and versatile DGT neck shape. With a depth of 27/32" at the 1st fret and 61/64" at the 12th fret, and a scale length of 25 inches, it strikes a balance between speed and substance. The rosewood fretboard, with its classic moon inlays and a 10" radius, offers smooth playability, ideal for both nuanced bends and fast, articulate runs. The 22 frets are carefully dressed for maximum comfort and intonation accuracy.

Tonally, the DGT is equipped with a pair of specially voiced DGT humbuckers — designed to provide vintage warmth, dynamic range, and clarity. With two dedicated volume controls, a push/pull tone control for coil-splitting, and a 3-way toggle switch, this setup allows for an impressive array of tones, from full-bodied rock crunch to sweet, articulate cleans. Whether you're on stage or in the studio, the DGT offers the versatility to cover just about any genre or style.

The PRS Gen II tremolo system is smooth and stable, perfect for expressive vibrato and pitch manipulation without compromising tuning stability. It's paired with PRS Phase III locking tuners with faux-bone buttons, ensuring precise tuning and quick string changes. Every piece of hardware is finished in sleek nickel, contributing to the instrument’s refined aesthetic.

Additional features include a PRS nut, double-acting truss rod, and a custom “DGT” truss rod cover, all contributing to the guitar’s premium build quality. It comes strung with PRS Signature 11–49 strings (featuring a plain "G"), and ships in a protective hardshell case, ready for the road or studio.

The Paul Reed Smith DGT – Faded Blue Jean is more than just a signature model; it’s a culmination of craftsmanship, performance, and artist-driven refinement. Whether you're a dedicated PRS collector or a tone-chaser looking for a world-class instrument, the DGT delivers on all fronts — visually striking, sonically rich, and effortlessly playable.
