Here we have a stunning PRS McCarty 594 in Fire Red Burst. This guitar is a prime example of the quality of PRS Guitars. It's woods and craftsman ship are absolutely superb.
 
 
In the late 1980’s, Paul Reed Smith called on Ted McCarty to consult with him on guitar design and production techniques. He not only served as a mentor but became a great friend of Paul and everyone he met at PRS. In 1994, PRS released the first McCarty, an instrument that incorporated the full spectrum of techniques and knowledge Paul had gained from Ted as well as his own experiences as a guitar builder.
 
This particular model, the Mccarty 594 was first released in 2016 and gets the name from it's unique scale-length at 24.594”, which is just slightly longer than 24.5”.
 
Overall this guitar is in very good condition however there are a few minor dings on the front of the body which have been repaired, slight play wear/buckle rash and a small ding on the top of the headstock. (Please see photos at the bottom of page).

PRS PHASE III LOCKING TUNERS

Tweaked Phase III tuners that have an added set screw that pulls the tuner’s shaft, gear, and worm together (but take the tuner button out of play) to promote tone transfer from the string directly into the guitar itself with as little energy as possible begin detracted.

PRS 58/15 LOW-TURN PICKUPS

The 58/15 Low Turn Humbuckers are a brillaint set of pickups which have a warm, clear tone. The Low Turn means they are slightly underwound, giving them less output, and a vintage sound similar to that of a classic PAF. This model has the added versatility of 2 Volume, 2 Tone Controls and push/pull coil taps for each pickup.

The name of the pickups devrive from what specific year they are based on, and when they were first made at the PRS factory. So the '58' means they are based on a 1958 vintage PAF, and the '15' being that they were first introduced in 2015 by PRS.

MAHOGANY BODY

Featuring a hand picked mahogany body, this will give a classic warm tone, and demonstrates PRS' roots in vintage design with a modern stylish modern aesthetic.

24.594" SCALE LENGTH

The 594 features a 24.594” scale length, just slightly longer than 24.5” scale which is where the model gets its name. This is a very unique scale length, and for good reason as it feels amazing and shows just how in depth PRS go in terms of their guitar designing, with modern playability at the forefront.

STUNNING MAPLE TOP FINISHED IN FIRE RED BURST

Possible what PRS are best known for the appearance of their instruments, and this guitar is a homage to that with a beautiful flame maple top. PRS only pick the best woods, and their unique staining technique shows off this incredible top.

CONDITION

Overall this guitar is in very good condition however there are a few minor dings on the front of the body which have been repaired, slight play wear/buckle rash and a small ding on the top of the headstock.
