The Paul Reed Smith (PRS) McCarty 594 in Goldtop finish is a stunning example of PRS's commitment to blending vintage inspiration with modern playability and craftsmanship. This particular guitar weighs in at a comfortable 8lbs 1oz, making it well-balanced and easy to handle for extended playing sessions. The classic goldtop finish exudes timeless elegance, making it a visually striking instrument that stands out on any stage or in any collection.
The McCarty 594 is designed to be a versatile, vintage-inspired instrument that offers effortless playability. It features a bound 22-fret Pattern Vintage neck and a slightly thicker back, which enhances tone and sustain. This design ensures that the guitar plays in tune and is intonated along the entire length of the neck, providing a familiar and comfortable playing experience. The 58/15 LT pickups, which have undergone the TCI (tuned capacitance and inductance) process, deliver rich, authentic humbucking tones as well as nuanced, sweet single-coil sounds. The dual volume and push/pull tone controls allow for seamless transitions between these sonic territories.
The McCarty 594 is anchored by a zinc two-piece bridge and vintage-style tuners, which contribute to its exceptional sustain and tonal character. As Paul Reed Smith himself has noted, the updates to the McCarty family, including the bridge, nut, and tuners, make a significant difference in the guitar's tone, providing longer sustain and more character.
In summary, the PRS McCarty 594 Goldtop is a versatile and beautifully crafted instrument that combines vintage aesthetics with modern playability and tonal versatility. Its excellent build quality, comfortable weight, and stunning finish make it a valuable addition to any guitarist's collection.
