Our take

Who this one is for

The DG Custom 30 is the David Grissom signature amp that came more than a decade before the DGT 15, a 30-watt single-channel head from a three-year collaboration between Grissom and PRS amp designer Doug Sewell. It is built in the USA in a fingerjointed pine cabinet with blonde Tolex, salt and pepper grill cloth and a cherry-stained mahogany fascia.

Four 6P14P-EV / 7189 power tubes run cathode biased, with three 12AX7s and a 12AT7 ahead of them. The front carries the bright switch, volume, reverb, a 3-band EQ and master. Top cut, the gain boost switch and presence live on the rear panel.

Our pairing is the DG 2x12 Cabinet, dressed in the same blonde Tolex and Vintage Cherry mahogany fascia, loaded with Celestion Vintage 30s and matched at 8 ohms. If you want Grissom's amp in a smaller format with tremolo and a footswitchable boost, look at the DGT 15 Head.

Pre-orders

Questions we get

How much do I pay today?

Your choice: the full price, or a 25% deposit. On a deposit, the balance is due when the guitar reaches the shop, before it ships to you. A deposit is paid by card or PayPal. Shop Pay, Apple Pay and Google Pay can't take one.

When will it arrive?

It varies by product, anywhere from two weeks up to several months. If you'd like a date for this model first, ask us in the chat and we'll check with the supplier before you order. If you're ready now, go ahead: we confirm the ETA by email once your order is in, and if it changes, we let you know and you can cancel.

Can I cancel?

Yes, any time before the supplier invoices it and ships it to us. We refund what you paid less 3% to cover the card processing fee.

Once it has shipped to us it is a special order and final sale. If it arrives with something wrong, we put that right.

What if the price goes up before it arrives?

You pay the price you ordered at. Once your order is placed we hold that price, even if the supplier raises it before the guitar arrives.

Is the free setup included?

Yes. A pre-order is an online order, so it gets the same free setup: it crosses our bench before it ships, set up the way you choose. The setup menu above shows what that covers.

Do I pay duty or brokerage on a US order?

No. Duty, taxes, brokerage and customs on a US order are handled at our end before the instrument leaves Ottawa. It arrives at your door with nothing to pay.

Orders going anywhere outside Canada and the United States work differently. The shipping and returns policy sets out which is which.

Can I finance it?

Yes, if you are in Canada and paying in full. Pick PayPlan by RBC or Shop Pay Installments as your payment method at checkout. The plan, the rate and the approval sit with the provider, and you see the terms before you agree to anything. You pay a deposit by card or PayPal.
