In this video we finally get a chance to hear how the PRS DGT sounds with Lollar Imperial pickups. I debated quite a while on how much finish touch up do on the guitar and decided to fill in the missing finish on the guitar body and fix the dent in the neck so you wouldn't feel it while playing.
The guitar was plugged into a 1969 Fender Super Reverb which has all the Blackface mods done to it. The audio was recorded with a cabinet mic and a room mic mic with very little post production. I added a tiny bit of compression to get it to sound more like what I was hearing in the room.
The video starts out with clean tones and then a Walrus Audio Warhorn is used for some overdriven tones. The guitar playing was somewhat repetitive to compare each pickup option for both clean and overdriven tones.
Roughly half way through the video you get to see some time lapse of the repair work done as well.
The guitar is now for sale on Reverb.com here:

The guitar sold and sounds like the new owner is going to gut the electronics and put it back to DGT specs. So much for all the custom wiring!

Michael August - Hello! I was wondering what became of it but didn’t want to ask. I hope you are enjoying it no matter what. Thanks for the message!

Just wish the bridge volume was wired where the neck was and vice versa like the DGT @@bbmade

I hear ya...I pondered that for quite a while before deciding to put it in the more conventional location. It wasn’t an easy decision that’s for sure.

Yeah man! I didn’t know you can repair finish that way. And I like the sound of those Imperials.

Finish touch up is always a chess match as is guitar repair in general.. Kudo’s to PRS because the finish is very thin. That makes the process more challenging.

Thanks Soda! I was really happy with the end result. The person that bought it was planning to change it back to stock DGT specs which I worried about a little while deciding what I wanted to do with it. They left it the way it was and ultimately ended up selling it. I only know that because someone contacted me while it was up for sale. It was a cool guitar and I’m a huge Lollar pickup fan. All my builds use them.
