It's a lovely looking guitar!  I really can't understand why they discontinued the SC Trem, there's nothing else in the PRS line to do the same job except the Tremonti, and not everyone wants a "signature" guitar.

I think reasoning is that the od SC Trem is quite similar to the Custom 22, due to the thinner body profile. Maybe they thought that just different looks don't justify a complete series in its own right? Not sure though.

The Tremonti however is unique, as it's a full bodied SC with Trem, which doesn't exist otherwise.

I am very much drawn to the DGT, just wondering if its 11s aren't a bit too much for me (usually play 9-10s).

I think you're right Hunter - its the similarity with the custom range. The thing is though, they sound quite different. The singlecut trem has a lot more low end

That's damned nice. Satin Finish owns gloss, I reckon.
