In the late 1980’s, Paul Reed Smith called on Ted McCarty to consult with him on guitar design and production techniques. McCarty not only served as a mentor but became a great friend of Paul and everyone he met at PRS. The PRS McCarty family of instruments incorporate the full spectrum of techniques and knowledge Paul had gained from Ted as well as his own experiences as a guitar builder.
