From PRS:
SUBTLY VERY DIFFERENT
The McCarty 594 is a versatile, vintage-inspired instrument that is effortlessly playable. Featuring a bound 22-fret Pattern Vintage neck and slightly
thicker back for more enhanced tone and sustain, the McCarty 594 plays
in tune, is intonated the entire length of the neck, and feels like a guitar
you've been playing forever. Whether you are looking for rich, authentic
humbucking tones or nuanced, sweet single-coil sounds, the McCarty 594
can seamlessly master both sonic territories thanks to its 58/15 LT pickups,
which have now been through the TCI (tuned capacitance and inductance)
process, and dual volume and push/pull tone controls. A zinc two-piece
bridge and vintage-style tuners anchor this guitar and stay true to the
promise of the McCarty family.
"One of my sayings is that everything that touches the string is God -- well,
that's really the bridge, the nut, and the tuners. The updates to the McCarty family make a huge difference in their tone. The guitar sustains longer
and the tone has more character," said Paul Reed Smith.
For 2020, PRS has updated this model with TCI-tuned pickups and nitro
over celluose (CAB) finish. For more information, please visit our 35th Anniversary page at www.prsguitars.com/35.
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.
