PRS DGT Semi-Hollow Custom - Faded Whale Blue / White Pearl

The DGT Semi-Hollow is already one of PRS’s most soulful and musically sophisticated instruments — David Grissom’s signature model built around the specific tonal and physical preferences of one of Texas’s most accomplished and distinctive guitar voices. This example goes further: a one-off custom color pairing that stops you in your tracks the moment it comes out of the case. Whale Blue on the curly maple top — PRS’s deep, oceanic blue-green that shifts and deepens depending on where the light catches the curl — with White Pearl on the back and headstock. The contrast between those two finishes is extraordinary; the luminous, almost iridescent white pearl on the back plays directly against the depth of the blue on the front, and the headstock carrying the same white pearl grounds the whole instrument visually. High-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer throughout. At 7lbs 2oz, the semi-hollow mahogany back breathes exactly the way this platform is supposed to — light in the hands, acoustically alive, with that subtle pre-resonance you feel through the body before the signal even hits the amp.

The violin-carved curly maple top over mahogany back and sides is the DGT Semi-Hollow’s physical foundation — a deeper, more dramatic carve than PRS’s standard Artist Grade, contributing to the acoustic complexity that separates this model from the solid-body DGT. David Grissom’s specific neck shape and depth (27/32" at the first fret, 61/64" at the twelfth) on a one-piece mahogany neck with a 10" radius rosewood fingerboard and moon inlays at 25" scale produces a playing feel that is immediately comfortable for players who have ever found PRS necks a touch thin — there’s real substance here. DGT pickups at both positions bring the lower-output, articulate, vintage-PAF-voiced character that Grissom built the guitar around: clear note separation, wide dynamic range, and a touch-sensitive response that rewards nuanced playing. Two volume controls with a push/pull tone control and 3-way toggle, PRS Phase III tuners with faux bone buttons, Gen II tremolo in nickel. The guitar ships strung with PRS Classic 11-49s — Grissom’s heavier gauge choice, and a meaningful indicator of how this instrument prefers to be played. PRS Molded Hardshell Case included.
