What our expert likes most
What surprises me most about this McCarty 594 is how versatile it sounds: the 58/15 LT "S" pickups give you a warm humbucker with a PAF feel and, with the push/pull tone controls, open up into single-coil territory. Its 24.594" scale, halfway between Gibson and PRS, balances tension and sustain. One guitar for blues, rock and soul.
The PRS SE McCarty 594 Black Gold Burst is a classic-inspired electric guitar that brings the character of the McCarty family to the SE series of PRS. It combines solid construction, elegant aesthetics, and highly versatile response. Its mahogany body with a maple top and flame maple veneer provides presence, sustain, and a refined visual finish, while the Pattern Vintage neck, 24.594” scale length, and PRS 58/15 LT “S” pickups deliver a warm, clear tone with plenty of vintage air.
Thanks to its two volume controls, two push/pull tone controls, and a 3-position switch, it easily transitions between powerful humbucker sounds and more open single-coil-like tones. This makes it a highly versatile choice for blues, rock, pop, soul, or styles that require a comfortable, expressive guitar with distinctive PRS personality.
