The PRS DG Custom 30, designed by guitarist David Grissom together with Doug Sewell over many years of development, is a 30-watt, hand-wired all-tube head built around a quartet of EL84/7581 power tubes for versatile, vintage-inspired tone. It offers a Bright switch, reverb, a Boost/Normal gain switch, Presence control, and Top Cut control, housed in blonde vinyl with a cherry-stained mahogany fascia and un-tinted salt-and-pepper grille cloth, with five parallel speaker jacks for flexible cabinet pairing.
