PRS McCarty 594, Black Gold Burst Overview
The McCarty Masterpieces
A Defined Legacy
The McCarty series is dedicated to Ted McCarty, a pioneer of electric guitars. PRS has made these guitars the centerpieces of their innovations in homage to McCarty’s knack for pushing progress. They boast some of the finest features and best playability around, and they sound sublime.
Embolden Your Tone
Delivering clear, punchy, articulate tone, the 58/15 LT+ humbuckers will take your sound where it needs to go. Their Low Turn design produces a well-rounded, medium output tone that gives just enough bite, with no loss of clarity. They’ve undergone a special TCI process, meaning they’ve been fine-tuned to suit the guitar’s natural tone.
The bridge humbucker has a classic, mid-forward voicing with bite and growl mixed with warmth and balance. The neck pickup, perfect for wailing lead lines and thickening up chords, has a deep, unique voicing. Both humbuckers can also produce a crisp, punchy single-coil sound through the dedicated push/pull tone controls, offering a broad palette of sounds and a bespoke playing experience.
Play Without Limits
A guitar should spark creativity, not restrict it. Every aspect of the McCarty is constructed with playability in mind. Experience easy transitions across the fretboard thanks to an ultra-smooth rosewood surface combined with a sleek mahogany neck that fits perfectly in the palm of your hand. Enjoy effortless access to the upper frets with an ergonomic single-cutaway body design. Whether you’re shredding up high or unleashing fat, low-end riffs, this guitar offers a feel that’s tailored to the player.
True Individual Style
It demands audience attention. With a custom finish so unique, how could it not? A mahogany body and maple top provide a breathtaking aesthetic, showcasing the McCarty Singlecut’s sumptuous grain pattern. The iconic ‘‘old school’’ PRS bird inlays dance across the silky-smooth fretboard for even more individual flair. Topped off with a gorgeous custom color black finish, this Limited Edition McCarty radiates one-of-a-kind style. So, whether you’re rehearsing or playing live, it’s all eyes on you.
