Our goal with the McCarty 594 was to create a vintage-sounding instrument that offers the extreme reliability that comes from our modern-day manufacturing.
“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
The 594 deviates from the original McCarty platform in a few unique ways. Most immediately you may notice the 3-way toggle placed on the upper bout of our double-cutaway PRS body shape. This location is familiar for many players and offers easy access to change tones on the fly. Here are some other unique specs the McCarty 594 offers:
– A 24.594” scale length, just slightly longer than our previous “vintage” instruments which clocked in at 24.5.” The McCarty 594 derives it’s name from this longer 24.594″ scale length.
– New “58/15 LT” pickups. LT meaning low turns, which give the 594 a sweet, lower-output tone.
– 2 volume and 2 push/pull tone controls positioned so players can roll off both volume knobs at the same time, and with the added versatility of coil splits for even more tonal options.
– A new Pattern Vintage neck carve. This neck carve shares the same width measurements as our Pattern neck, but is slightly thicker front to back and features an asymmetrical carve with a little less meat on the treble side, and a little more on the bass side of the neck.
– Tweaked Phase III tuners that have an added set screw to pull the tuner’s shaft, gear, and worm together, but with the tuner button taken out of play, to promote tone transfer from the string directly into the guitar itself with as little energy as possible being detracted.
