2024 PRS McCarty 594 Singlecut Electric Guitar - McCarty Sunburst

2024 PRS McCarty 594 Singlecut Electric Guitar - McCarty Sunburst

The PRS McCarty 594 Singlecut is a stunning tribute to the golden era of electric guitar manufacturing, named after Paul Reed Smith's mentor and former Gibson president, Ted McCarty. This instrument flawlessly bridges the gap between vintage soul and modern precision. Constructed with a resonant mahogany back and a beautifully carved maple top, this guitar produces the thick, sustaining tone that defined rock and blues history. The unique 24.594-inch scale length provides a slinky, comfortable string tension that makes bending effortless, giving the guitar a "broken-in" feel the moment you pick it up.

At the heart of the McCarty 594’s voice are the 58/15 LT (Low Turn) pickups, which have undergone PRS's TCI (Tuned Capacitance and Inductance) process. These pickups deliver exceptional clarity and focused midrange, capturing the sweetness of vintage humbuckers without sacrificing articulation. For players needing versatility, the push/pull tone controls unlock convincing single-coil textures, allowing you to cover everything from jazz to hard rock. The Pattern Vintage neck profile offers a substantial yet comfortable grip, perfect for players who prefer a neck with some shoulder to it.

New for 2024, PRS has updated the tuning machines to feature lightweight "Wing" buttons, designed to echo the 12th fret bird wingspan while reducing headstock weight for increased resonance. Anchored by a zinc two-piece stoptail bridge with brass saddles, this guitar offers superior intonation and sustain. Whether you are chasing the legacy tones of players like Jimmy Page or forging your own sonic path, the McCarty 594 Singlecut represents the pinnacle of PRS craftsmanship and design.
