The SE series has another addition with the McCarty models. This classic design is inspired by one of the pioneers of guitar history, Ted McCarty, who gave us the ES-335, the Tune-o-matic bridge system, the humbucker, the Flying V and much, much more during his time as CEO of Gibson in the 50s and 60s. Paul Reed Smith sought out Ted, who became a mentor to Paul and passed on his knowledge and way of thinking. PRS SE The McCarty 594 gets its nickname from the neck measuring 24.594".
The two 58/15 LT "S" pickups are designed by PRS to deliver a warm, rounded tone with a fine and clean treble. Easily switch between humbucker and single-coil (push-pull in the volume knobs), making the guitar incredibly versatile. The two-piece zinc bridge and vintage-look tuning screws give the guitar a clear line to its role models, while the now classic PRS body shape and fulge neck inlays add a modern look. SE McCarty beautifully combines timeless guitar virtues with modern design and details in a quality that suggests a much higher price point.
