About this listing
Vintage Soul. Modern Precision.The 40th Anniversary PRS McCarty SC56 Limited Edition captures the essence of a golden era of electric guitar design while delivering the playability and reliability that today’s musicians demand. With a classic PRS single-cutaway body shape and carefully chosen specifications, the McCarty SC56 is both a tribute to tradition and a modern performer’s dream.Anchored by a maple top and mahogany back, with a 22-fret, 24.594” scale length Pattern Vintage neck, the McCarty SC56 is designed for rich, resonant tone and effortless playability. The 24.594” scale length and slightly thicker back give the McCarty SC56 a warm, woody voice and comfortable feel, while its Phase III non-locking tuners and PRS two-piece bridge anchor the guitar and promote its musical sustain.The heart of the 40th Anniversary McCarty SC56 Limited Edition lies in its pickups: a pair of PRS McCarty III pickups, meticulously designed to deliver warm, clear tone with exceptional note separation and dynamics. Controlled by a simple and elegant layout — two volume controls, two tone controls, and a 3-way toggle on the upper bout — the McCarty SC56 keeps the player focused on feel and sound.With appointments like binding on the fretboard, classic bird inlays, and a vintage-inspired nitrocellulose finish, the 40th Anniversary McCarty SC56 Limited Edition blends heritage and innovation into a timeless instrument. Whether you’re chasing pure vintage tone or seeking a reliable stage companion, the McCarty SC56 stands ready.PRS 40th Anniversary McCarty SC56 – 400 Piece Limited EditionPRS Two-Piece BridgeMade of zinc and brass, this bridge has four contact points and added mass, enhancing the natural tone of the guitar and helping to create a more resonant instrument.PRS Phase III Non-Locking Tuners with Wing ButtonsWith vintage elegance, these lightweight tuners promote tone transfer for a louder, more resonant instrument.PRS McCarty III PickupsVintage-inspired pickups that bring a vocal clarity to their full, warm tone.Weight-Relief DesignSingle-cutaway guitars are known to be heavier than their double-cutaway counterparts.
