PRS Grissom DGT Pickup wiring specs

[s2khawk]

Hey Guys, can someone tell me what the output is on the two 'buckers in the DGT PRS? Also if the two volumes have a treble bypass cap? I saw the youtube vid and the DGT is the only humbucker guitar I've liked tonally. While I save the dough for one I'd like to play around with my ES335 reissue and see how close I can get to the DGT pickup/wiring in that guitar since it needs clarity/definition BADLY and I'm pretty darn sure PRS won't be selling the DGT wiring harness/pickups anytime soon sadly... thanks in advance to whomever can help me out.

Rumor is they are a tweeked set of AT PUP's... You could try them. I allways liked them in the PRSi that I owned. Low output PAF like tone I belive.

PRS Archtop pickups are definitely my favorite.....they're so open and clear sounding - unlike the McCartys. I really want to try a DGT!

thanks guys, yeah sure sounds like Archtop pups might be it. I wonder if you could even use dual AT bass nickels and just adjust the heights of the pups for the clearest widest tone. I want no compressed, nasal at all. I think the Artist pups are hotter than the Archtop, but not sure. The DGT also has coil tapping which might be the 'tweaked' part of it since I believe the Archtop pups cannot be coil tapped.

Stock AT pickups can't be tapped- I have them in my McCarty. They are best humbuckers I've ever tried (I am a single coil guy). If you are disappointed with stock McCarty pickups, give the AT's a try.

Anyway, they are real low output. Not sure how they would be tapped being that they are so low output to start with.

thanks Sean, I'm a 100% single coil, P90 guy and the DGT video with that shitty amp and horrible playing still sounded like the best humbucker guitar I have ever heard. The coil taps were perfect and the tones all around were thick and full without muddiness. This is what I wanted but could never find...like an esquire meets the cleanest vintage les paul. I think what he's using is AT's with coil tapping.
