2:20 I didn't see a disclaimer but it's an actual analog trem using tube bias modulation.
I’m more interested in this product than any PRS product I’ve ever seen.
I’m glad you got to review it in the first wave of content.
I feel the same way.
I like it! I think this one may be in my future.
I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I think I finally have enough guitars…. But a new amp, that has potential! 🤠
Thanks for the presentation.
The grin on Phil's face when he strums that first clean G chord. Must sound sweet.
Tremolo is tube - bias
So many choices so little time I like this one!
It is a tube tremolo. Just watched a vid with DG and they talked about it.
Nice review
Seems little a nice amp. Good stuff Phil ❤
Pretty impresive amp.
sweet guitar
Could you open it up and show everyone the inside of the chassis?
Except no sock test please ⚡️
Yes he can. It would say "MADE IN COMUNIST CHINA"- Thats a natural fact. There are many reasons I hate PRS. He & the entire company are made of scumbags.
It weird
Buy one and open it dude.. precious Nelly
Who cares what's in the chassis.
Definitely a worthwhile challenger for the Princeton. I love that it has both reverb and tremolo.
Bet it would sound great through a 1X15 cabinet.
Love reverb hate trem. It’s a waste
Now that is an amp
Tremolo sounds great!
I wish my Tweaker 15 had Tremolo, but the SUPRO Tremolo pedal is amazing!
Rock on
Sounds great, Reminds me of my Victory V40, but then with some different spins of the tonal options - and can maybe go higher gain? But similar smooth, Fender-like, and yeah warmer and maybe more clean headroom. V40 has the mid control too, but no bright. I like the way the V40 can go 1/4 power, and single-ended too. The PRS DGT 15 is maybe a bit more fitted out and roadworth compared to the small metal lunchbox standard V40. I guess it's not going to be as loud. But then, over in the USA, I'd imagine the V40 could cost more - and it's digital reverb too - doesn't have tremelo though.
What are your thoughts on this compared to the HDRX20? Sounds quite a bit like it to me, but with several more features (which make sense with the added features). Do you think they are similar tonally or a bit different? Maybe the HDRX was a bit more Marshall clean sound than this DGT being a bit more fender flavored?
PRS biz model is odd - high quality, modern/retro products better than the older OEMs & sell 'em for less. Rock on, Mr Paul....
That doesn't sound odd at all.
They are made in "Comunist CHINA"
It does when they know they could sell for more and people would pay. PRS also has the weirdest fantasy, not very knowledgeable people but will diehard defend/hype everything made by PRS.
Good
I’m not a fan of PRS guitars, but the “30” amp they came out with some years back was a very good version of the Vox sound, and this one seems to be great as well with just about as perfect a set of features imaginable (outside of an fix loop). And not outrageously expensive.
Can we hear it with a delay in front?
Good review. Not for me for the price. Do like that Kiesel guitar. Sweet 👍✌️🎸
Single channel, no fx loop...but made with tone wood.
I hear the plastic used in the control knobs was chosen to improve the tone 😂
😂😂😂
Definitely a 15 top😳
Tremendous
can you rate some gear4music guitar
This amp sounds great ! Still holding out for a Milkman though...
Great video!
I have to watch it at half speed. Phil, ya talk really fast. Lot's of numbers and specs to absorb.
Since it's a tube amp. I would like to know the build. I would like to see the actual amplifier. I think on volume this amp will start to sound more like a mini dumble. So I would ask you to revisit the amp after you have played a gig with it.
I bet it has nice thick circuit boards that will make it easily serviceable and give it a quality modern road amps need.
Seems like a cool edge of breakup platform. I’m assuming not a ton of headroom with humbuckers. Also cool it’s $300 less than a 65 Princeton reissue
No cab
Did Bruce Egnater start working at PRS?
no effects loop - do you think that is a detractor?
Sweet amp ! Does it come in black ? Thanks buddy.
They said you can have any color you want as long as it is Tan. Black would be cool though
@@PhillipMcKnight😂😂😂😂
Sounds like a rebel 30 actually
I think I'm just too picky. Sounds great but not sure about the colour.
This seems to be a very versatile amp for sure and it sounds great. I've been gas'ing over getting the MT15 from PRS, but they have been on backorder for a while. The MT15 has received a ton of high praises , and no doubt this one will as well. Just not 100% sure I'm willing to spend an extra $400 for the DGT over the Mark Tremonti MT15. The DGT does have more features though.
MT-15 has a different gain structure than the DGT. The DGT has a more Marshally British overdrive tone, whereas the MT-15 has a tone that sounds more in the American voiced/Soldano SLO range especially when you crank the mids, and keep the gain lower. MT-15 has a more scooped clean tone, whereas this DGT isn’t as scooped in the low mids. Both amps have that American voiced clean tone, but the DGT has the ability to overdrive the cleans a lot more than the MT-15. The MT-15 being 6l6 based it might have a little more volume and low end to it as opposed to the DGT using EL-84s they produce more forward midrange, a little less bass response and volume power. I love the built in tube reverb and tube bias tremolo on the DGT! Overall, It’s a killer amp! When making your choice on the amp just think about what kind of gain structure are you more after. The Fender/Marshally classic rock side, or the Fender/Soldano-Mesa rectifier heavy rock/metal side.
As an owner of the MT-15 you can get classic rock tones out of it if you Eq it right but the DGT really hones in on the classic rock British overdrive tones. I’d love to blend it with the DGT in a mix! Get all the classic rock and modern sounds in one! Good luck!
@@StompboxMods Thank you for the info. I prefer the 6L6/5881 over the EL84 sound for cleans anyway. The tube reverb is a great bonus as well as a few other switching options, but I think the MT15 with the Fender/Mig50 power tubes fits my preferences a bit better. Again, thanks for the input.
Why no effects loop?
I believe it has to do with what Grissom mainly played through. The back line amps in many American clubs are Fender amps, which lack an effects loop. I’ve seen Grissom playing through Super Reverbs in Austin clubs before he got his signature amp. His pedals tend to be boost/overdrive and delay, which you’d run through the input, so he doesn’t need an effects loop. Texas blues guitarists seem to prefer a Super Reverb or Vibro King. Guitarists who used vintage amps didn’t have an effects loop, so they ran all effects through the input. Many older studio musicians, especially in Nashville don’t use effects loops. In keeping with Grissom’s style and to keep the amp cost down, it makes sense to omit the added expense of an effects loop.
Where is it made?
He said Indonesia at the beginning of the video.
love the video. cool amp. just fyi you wrote specker instead of speaker in the overlay text
Phil has adhd and dyslexia.
My favorite amp that you've demonstrated clean was the Orange Crush Pro 120. You also had something else that was just as good but I can't recall which it was. This one is just meh. It doesn't sound special. I'd rather buy the Orange Crush Pro 120 for $499 and buy some super duper pedal to get the awesome tube drive sound. That would save a fortune and probably never need maintenance.
Must be cold for you to wear long sleeves. Thanks! \m/

At the point where the tremolo turned on, I said to exactly no one in the room, "Ooooooh.... oooooooo. WOW!" And then I realized I was talking to myself.
It's bias very trem.
The million dollar question is will this amp be replacing your Princeton?
No fx loop, but i bet it has an amazing tonewood
Sounds like a fender
N E A T O
Reverb sounds long
No Chug no parrty😪
Too bad no fx loop
No FX loop pretty much discounts any any amp I look at in the modern age.
Don’t need it. If running everything to front of amp is good enough for David Grissom, that’s all that counts.
Honestly I haven’t used an FX loop in probably ten years and don’t miss it
@@jerryhorton5708 because you should only want and need what some other guy wants and needs? That's weird
The beauty is that we all have our own wants and needs
@@jerryhorton5708 i know that as a signature amp could have specs that suits the artist, but modern era amps should have a fx loop as an option at list. Love the way this amp saturates, but, for my style, running ambient effects in front could be a real mess.
@@billcarson4749 Ah, I hadn’t accounted for ambient players, so I understand the need. I do believe the PRS MT15 has an FX loop and that amp is a butt kicker!
Yeah, that’s one thing David Grissom never uses - huge ‘verbs, ethereal shimmer, or space delays. His sound is more viscerally straightforward
I don't think you can better spend $1200 for a tube head that can do anything. IMO to get better you need to spend over $2000 for a Bad Cat
Why Paul's obsession with Grissom? who I guarantee most players today have no clue who he is. Id never heard of him until the PRS guitar came out and I've been playing for 45 years. .he's never been the leader of a popular act other than being in Mellencamp band, I had to look that up- he's a sideman not the star., just seems like a limited market
Must be his buddy. I've been playing for 40 years and listening to all kinds of guitar players for 50 and had never heard of him.
If you haven’t checked out his solo albums, I strongly encourage you to do so. David is an incredible player that I started following when he formed Storyville.
There are a lot of phenominal guitar players who are studio guys or sidemen. He led the Dixie chicks tours for years as well as his stuff with mellencamp and he knows good tone. It’s the same as someone saying they never heard of Brent Mason. Just because some people never heard of him doesn’t mean he isn’t a great guitarist and can create a great product. His dgt was so well like by others in Nashville that prs opened the model to the general public and other pro players who liked it that much
@@13sadowsky True. Being the star, frontman, or even 'well-known' isn't that important. It is influence on the intstrument and his contributions to the artists he support. He actually started as a sideman for Joe Ely a very long time ago. Once I discovered him through Storyville, I went back and listened to his work there. His solo work is incredible
He's a staple in the Austin scene
It sounds like it has a stuffy nose...
Seems like a decent amp, but not a great amp. I am hearing a lack of the kind of detail and harmonics that you get out of a good Marshall Superlead, even turned almost all the way down. If I don't hear those complex harmonics and details, it's not the amp for me.
Too bad they didn't use 6V6 tubes.
I wouldnt be surprised if this is an ac15 with a negative feedback loop and other mods
His guitar was the best cause of the PRICE ..that's it..
I must respectfully disagree. I own some top of the line PRS guitars, but for my ears, and based on my personal taste (which certainly could be questionable), there’s something about the tone and the feel of the DGT SE that makes it tough to put down. For me, it filled a spot in my collection that I didn’t realize existed.
Just curious-have you played one?
Played one at GC. I thought it sounded very good. Purty nice amp for $1200. Will i buy one ? Sorry no $$$$
Let me know when you're ready to sell that Knaggs Severn. lol
Go Army!
Phoenix sucks. Tucson is better. hahaha
(Except that Tucson doesn't have a Bikini Beans Coffee. That does suck.)
Are the other manufacturers even trying? PRS is putting out phenomenal products and trying to improve not just resting on their name legacy.
Not a fan of the logo design!
That logo looks ridiculous.
Double PRS? This could only get more tragically mid-life crisis if you had a 20 yr old girlfriend and shiny new Harley...
Wtf does this even mean?
@@JordonBealit means astiagogo doesn't have a girlfriend or a bike, and is in crisis because others have both
Never cared for his guitars either.
