The PRS McCarty 594 is a vintage-inspired electric guitar that seamlessly combines the rich, authentic tones of a classic humbucker with the nuanced voicing of a sweet single-coil. With its familiar feel and effortless playability, the McCarty 594 delivers the vintage vibe you crave while opening up new tonal territories for your playing.

Vintage Warmth Meets Modern Clarity

At the heart of the McCarty 594 are a pair of 58/15 LT "low turns" humbucking pickups. These vintage-inspired pickups produce the warm, textured tones reminiscent of coveted PAF humbuckers from the late 1950s. Notes bloom with clarity as the articulate mids and highs cut through a mix. Yet the 58/15 LTs also capture the percussive, dynamic character you'd expect from historic humbucker designs. Dial in thick, chewy rhythms or let leads sing with sustain and grit.

Expand Your Tonal Palette

While the 58/15 LTs evoke timeless humbucker tones, the McCarty 594 is no one-trick pony. Push/pull coil taps on the tone controls instantly split the humbuckers into bright, crisp single-coils. This provides instant access to the glassy, articulate tones perfect for funk rhythms or cutting lead lines. With the flip of a switch, you can transition from chunky humbucker crunch to a shimmering single-coil quack – all without losing your ideal volume setting.

Premium Craftsmanship Enhances Playability

Like all PRS guitars, the McCarty 594 benefits from the brand's meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail. The 24.594" scale length, just slightly longer than 24.5", enhances intonation and playability across the entire neck. The dual volume and tone controls are positioned so you can roll off both volumes simultaneously for expressive swells. From the first note, the McCarty 594 feels like an extension of your musical voice.

Vintage Inspiration, Modern Execution

Beyond the premium components and construction, the McCarty 594 is built to PRS's exacting standards. The Pattern Vintage neck carve provides a familiar, broken-in feel right away. The 10-top figured maple adds vivid visual character while the resonant mahogany body serves up even, balanced tone. If you crave the vibe of a cherished classic but want modern versatility, the McCarty 594 is the instrument for you.
