Paul Reed Smith PRS 594 McCarty Core - McCarty Sunburst Mint - $2,950 (Scottsdale)
QR Code Link to This Post
The 594 McCarty provides a new take on PRS's top shelf McCarty line, gracefully blending elements of a fine vintage instrument with modern building processes and appointments. The McCarty 594's TCI-tuned 58/15 LT pickups offer up both bell-like humbucking and single-coil tones. PRS paid extra attention to the neck, designing an asymmetrical Pattern Vintage neck carve with a 24.594" scale length. And the updated bridge and vintage-style non-locking tuners further ensure you'll be enjoying the best the McCarty 594 has to offer. Why this guitar is not a "10" top I do not know but the flame is lovely.
When you plug in the PRS McCarty 594 solidbody electric guitar to your favorite amplifier, you will be enveloped in a rich and decidedly vintage tone. The sound is similar to the warm, clear tones that have propelled the original 58/15 pickups to the top of many guitarists' favorite PAF-style pickup lists. But these pickups are treated to the company's TCI (Tuned Capacitance and Inductance) tuning, which means the team at PRS has used their years of know-how to sculpt the sound to be perfect to their ears. The end result is a very musical pickup that's true to its lineage, but updated for the modern player. Pulling up on the tone knobs attains true single-coil chime; you also have full, independent control of each pickup by way of the 4-knob control layout.
Some of the least visible but most powerful features of the PRS McCarty 594 include a neck feel that maximizes your performance and comfort with an asymmetrical Pattern Vintage profile. Though much like PRS's Pattern profile, the Pattern Vintage carve is slightly thicker to fill your hand in just the right way. And the strings will always feel silky smooth when playing and bending due to the guitar's 24.594-inch scale length, which is also where this model of McCarty gets its name. **SEE Terms of Sale below**.
