[SN 25 0403530] USED Paul Reed Smith (PRS) / 2025 McCarty 594 10-Top Charcoal Burst [03]
* From the manufacturer's website
Named after Ted McCarty, who made a great contribution to the music industry, the McCarty model is a collaboration between Paul and Ted that blends PRS technology and design with the essence of legendary instruments from the golden age of electric guitars.
The 22-fret neck, featuring binding, is slightly thicker to enhance tone and sustain. It features a two-piece bridge with brass saddles and steel studs,a bone nut, and PRS Phase III tuners with brass shafts—the core specifications of this McCarty 594. Additionally, it now features the newly added McCarty III, inspired by vintage guitars to produce a warm, rich vintage tone. Furthermore, the combination of a push/pull tone knob for coil tapping and a 3-way toggle switch enables a wide range of sound shaping.
The McCarty III pickup encapsulates all the know-how that Paul Reed Smith and the PRS new product engineering team have cultivated in recent product development—from extensive research into vintage pickups to sound analysis and improvements in tuning technology.
"I have always said that everything that comes into contact with the strings—the bridge, nut, and tuners—has a massive impact on the guitar’s tone, sustain, and overall sound character. In developing the McCarty series, we scrutinized each of these parts and, through repeated trial and error, succeeded in creating a magnificent sound unique to this model."Just like the pieces of a puzzle fitting together perfectly, we completed this model—just like our other models—without making a single compromise," says Paul Reed Smith.
In the late 1980s, Paul Reed Smith consulted with Ted McCarty on guitar design and construction techniques, and that collaboration led to the release of the first-generation McCarty in 1994.The McCarty 594 incorporates not only all the techniques and knowledge Paul acquired from Ted, but also Paul’s own extensive experience as a guitar builder. It can truly be described as a guitar that seamlessly blends vintage sound with modern playability at the highest level.
