Paul Reed Smith SE McCarty 594 Charcoal

Paul Reed Smith SE McCarty 594 Charcoal
Serial Number: H081889
Weight: 7.2 lbs.

The PRS SE McCarty 594 in Charcoal is a vintage-inspired workhorse built around the McCarty family's signature recipe: a maple top over a mahogany body and set mahogany neck, finished in Gloss Charcoal with cream fretboard binding and bird inlays for a classic PRS look. At 7.2 lbs., it's light enough for long sets while staying true to the substantial, resonant feel PRS's 594-scale guitars are known for.

The set-neck mahogany neck is carved to PRS's Pattern Vintage profile (7/8" at the 1/2 fret, 63/64" at the 12th), a fuller, slightly thicker shape with a fatter back that adds sustain and old-school heft under the hand. A rosewood fretboard with bird inlays and cream binding runs a 10" radius, 22 frets, and PRS's shorter 24.594" scale length with a 1.6875" nut, delivering the softer string tension and vintage feel that scale length is prized for. PRS's two-piece bridge and PRS-designed vintage-style tuners in nickel/chrome hardware round out a build aimed squarely at players chasing an authentic, road-ready vintage voice.

A pair of 58/15 LT "S" humbuckers anchors the tone, delivering warm, vintage-correct humbucker output with extra clarity and sweetness on top. Two independent volume and push/pull tone controls with split-coil switching let you pull each pickup into single-coil territory on demand, so the same guitar covers full humbucker warmth and bright, chiming single-coil tones through a 3-way toggle selector. Whether you're a blues or classic rock player after vintage PRS tone, a session guitarist who needs humbucker punch and single-coil clarity in one instrument, or a McCarty-series collector rounding out an SE lineup, the SE McCarty 594 delivers a genuinely versatile, workhorse voice. (Serial #H081889) It includes a PRS SE gig bag. Order today from Brian's Guitars, your authorized PRS dealer.
