Paul Reed Smith McCarty 594 Mango Top Black Gold Fade Smokeburst
Paul Reed Smith McCarty 594 Mango Top Black Gold Fade Smokeburst
Serial Number: 0424017
Weight: 7.42 lbs.
The PRS McCarty 594 Mango Limited Edition in Black Gold Fade Smokeburst is one of just 200 built in 2026, and the figured mango top is the reason it exists. Mango is rarely used on electric guitars, and the grain here shifts and shimmers as the guitar moves under light — no two tops in the run are alike. High-gloss nitro over a mahogany body, with smoked black hardware chosen to sit with the burst rather than against it. At 7.42 lbs., it's a comfortable weight for a 594.
The mahogany neck uses PRS's Pattern Vintage profile (7/8" at the 1/2 fret, 63/64" at the 12 1/2 fret), a fuller, vintage-leaning carve set into a slightly thicker body — the combination that gives the 594 its particular feel and note bloom. A ziricote fretboard with faux bone binding carries old school bird inlays across a 10" radius and 22 frets, and a matching ziricote headstock veneer ties it to the top. The 24.594" scale length is the model's defining measurement, delivering the vintage string tension and response the number is named for, with a 1 11/16" PRS nut. Hardware is a PRS two-piece bridge with brass saddles and Phase III locking tuners with wing buttons.
Electronics are McCarty III humbuckers in both positions, wired to two volumes, two tones with push/pull coil taps, and a 3-way toggle. The McCarty IIIs deliver a full, warm humbucking core with vocal clarity and note separation, and the taps open up single-coil-style voices without a drop in usable output — the four-knob layout means you can set each pickup independently and blend in the middle position. Whether you're a blues player after soulful rhythm and singing leads, a jazz or rock guitarist who wants vintage response with modern reliability, or a collector drawn to an uncommon tonewood in a limited run, this 594 covers it. This PRS McCarty 594 Mango Limited Edition (Serial #0424017, 1 of 200 made in 2026) includes a PRS ATA hardshell case. Order today from Brian's Guitars, your authorized PRS dealer — when these 200 are gone, they're gone.
