2025 Paul Reed Smith SE Exotic DGT Laurel Burl McCarty Tobacco Burst - 2025 Paul Reed Smith SE Exotic McCarty 594 Laurel Burl Vintage Sunburst.

Got these yesterday in a guitar trade with a local store.

The DGT: "Only 1,000 of these instruments will be made for 2025."

The 594: "Only 500 of these instruments will be made for 2025."

The DGT is probably one of my favorite PRS guitars or guitars in general that I have played! Small tightening to the truss rod and she was ready to go and plays and sounds and looks amazing! :D

The 594 on the other hand left me a little disappointed for a first impression. There's a small wiring issue messed up somewhere that won't allow me to activate the bridge pickup when the 3-way toggle is in bridge position. The weird thing is if you turn down the volume knob for the neck pickup like a notch or two while still in bridge position on 3-way toggle, then the bridge pickup works lol. That knob shouldn't be working for the bridge pickup haha. A friend of mine is going to fix it for me soon. The action was horrible but I just got it set where I like it and playing and sounding great now. :D Feeling better about it now and will feel better once the wire issue is taken care of.

Congrats!! Very cool. I grabbed the 594 laurel almost immediately. The DGT is cool too.

One thing I had a problem with was the push/pull on the bridge tone pot was flakey. This caused some intermittent signal issues when engaged. The neck push/pull has a a nice solid switching action. The other was mushy. I have yet to order some quality pots and replace. Otherwise it’s a great guitar. Mine also has the nice figure and stain like yours. Not all are the same.
