“The 594 is the best new guitar I've played in years. It has a vintage heart and soul but without the technical limitations that usually come along with an old instrument. What good is an old guitar if you can't get all that feel out of the upper frets, or the intonation is off? To hear that old PAF sound but be able to articulate the notes in a way that only modern manufacturing could allow is so exciting.” - John Mayer Vintage Soul, Modern PlayabilityThe Paul Reed Smith McCarty 594 solidbody electric guitar provides a new take on their important McCarty line, gracefully blending elements of a fine vintage instrument with modern building processes and appointments. The McCarty 594's 58/15 LT (Low Turn) pickups offer up both bell-like humbucking and single-coil tones. PRS paid extra attention to the neck, designing an asymmetrical Pattern Vintage neck carve with a 24.594" scale length. And the updated bridge and Phase III locking tuners further ensure you'll be enjoying the best the McCarty 594 has to offer.Paul Reed Smith McCarty 594 Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:A historic pedigreeClear and smooth vintage voiceUpdated dimensions for effortless playabilityA historic pedigreeTed McCarty had his hand in some of the most legendary designs in electric guitar history, including the original humbucking pickup. McCarty began mentoring Paul Smith, and the original Paul Reed Smith McCarty model debuted in the 1990s. Since that time, the popular model has been re-released with updated specs and continues to be a popular line for the company. This McCarty 594 represents the latest incarnation of that model, complete with updated pickups, a different neck feel, and an electronics arrangement similar to the vintage guitars McCarty helped pioneer.Clear and smooth vintage voiceWhen you plug the PRS McCarty 594 solidbody electric guitar into your favorite amplifier, you will be enveloped in a rich and decidedly vintage tone. The sound is similar to the warm, clear tones that have propelled the original 58/15 pickups to the top of many guitarists' favorite PAF-style pickup list. But the lower wire turns of the 58/15 LTs deliver even more clarity and nuance. Pulling up on the tone knobs attains true single-coil chime, and you have full and independent control of each pickup by way of the 4-knob control layout.Updated dimensions for effortless playabilitySome of the least visible but most powerful features of the PRS McCarty 594 include a neck feel that maximizes your performance and comfort with an asymmetrical Pattern Vintage profile. Though much like their Pattern profile, the Pattern Vintage carve is slightly thicker to fill your hand in just the right way. And the strings will always feel silky smooth when playing and bending due to the guitar's 24.594" scale length, which is also where this model of McCarty gets its name. Finally, a "tweaked" version of the Phase III locking tuners transfers even more string energy to the guitar's neck.Paul Reed Smith McCarty 594 Solidbody Electric Guitar Features:New design from Paul Reed SmithBeautiful figured maple 10-TopLonger 24.594" scale length offers a unique feel58/15 LT (Low Turn) pickups deliver vintage humbucking and single-coil tones4-knob layout allows individual control of each pickup's volume and toneComfortable asymmetric Pattern Vintage neck carveUpdated Phase III locking tuners transfer more energy to the headstockThe McCarty 594 blends the best of the old and new.Tech SpecsBody Type SolidbodyBody Shape McCarty 594Right-handed Number of Strings 6Body Material MahoganyTop Material 10-Top Flamed MapleBody Finish High GlossColor  Dark Cherry BurstNeck Material Solid East Indian RosewoodNeck Shape Asymmetrical Pattern Vintage profileFingerboard Material RosewoodFingerboard Inlay BirdsNumber of Frets 22Scale Length 24.594"Nut Material BoneBridge/Tailpiece PRS 2-Piece StoptailTuners PRS Phase III Locking TunersNeck Pickup 58/15 LT Bass HumbuckerBridge Pickup 58/15 LT Treble HumbuckerControls 2 x volume, 2 x tone (push/pull coil split), 3-way toggle pickup switchCase Included Hardshell caseManufacturer Part Number M5M2FTHVIB2_TG_N1-1KGuitar is 100% guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
