It's unmistakably a PRS, but there's a healthy dose of vintage guitar thinking built into the design. Named after legendary Gibson president and guitar-industry pioneer Ted McCarty, this USA-made Core model combines PRS's meticulous construction with a wonderfully traditional approach to tone, feel, and aesthetics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe McCarty Tobacco Sunburst finish is a particularly good match for the guitar. The figured maple top gets a classic burst treatment that lets the natural character of the wood show through, while the slightly thicker mahogany body gives the McCarty a substantial feel and contributes to the fat, resonant voice this model is known for. The maple top features PRS's Violin carve, giving the guitar that familiar combination of elegant curves and understated sophistication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe one-piece mahogany neck has PRS's Pattern profile, which is a comfortable, substantial shape that feels decidedly more vintage than some of the thinner necks found elsewhere in the PRS lineup. The rosewood fingerboard features faux bone binding and PRS Birds, and the 10\" radius gives you a comfortable playing surface that works equally well for chords, bends, and lead playing. At 25\" scale length and 22 frets, the McCarty occupies that very comfortable middle ground between the traditional Gibson and Fender worlds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is also a guitar where PRS really paid attention to the hardware. The PRS Stoptail with brass inserts is a big part of the McCarty design philosophy, and the Phase III non-locking tuners with wing buttons provide excellent tuning stability while retaining the vintage-inspired aesthetic. PRS has specifically emphasized the role of the bridge, nut, and tuners in the McCarty's tonal response, and the result is a guitar with impressive sustain and resonance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe current Core McCarty is equipped with a pair of McCarty III humbuckers, PRS's latest evolution of the pickups designed specifically for this model. They're voiced with a warm, full character but retain plenty of clarity and articulation. There's a vocal quality to them that works beautifully for everything from clean, woody rhythm tones to thick overdrive, and they respond very well to the player's touch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe control layout is wonderfully simple: one Volume and one push\/pull Tone control, with a three-way pickup selector. Pull up on the Tone control and you have access to single-coil sounds, giving the McCarty considerably more versatility without complicating the basic operation of the guitar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd that's really the appeal of the McCarty. PRS didn't try to make this guitar futuristic. Instead, they took the lessons learned from decades of building guitars and applied them to a design that respects what players love about vintage instruments. The result is a guitar that feels sophisticated and refined without being sterile, and modern without losing that unmistakable old-school guitar vibe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe McCarty Tobacco Sunburst is a beautiful example of what the PRS Core series does best: serious American craftsmanship, gorgeous woods, exceptional hardware, and a tone that makes you want to plug in and stay there for a while.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePRS\u003cbr\u003eCore Series\u003cbr\u003eMcCarty\u003cbr\u003eMcCarty Tobacco Sunburst Finish\u003cbr\u003eWeighs 7 lbs 8 oz\u003cbr\u003eMahogany Body\u003cbr\u003eCarved Figured Maple Top - Violin Carve\u003cbr\u003eMahogany Neck - One-Piece, Set Neck\u003cbr\u003ePattern Neck Profile\u003cbr\u003eRosewood Fingerboard w\/Faux Bone Binding\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Radius: 10\"\u003cbr\u003e22 x PRS Vintage Frets\u003cbr\u003e25\" Scale Length\u003cbr\u003eNut Width: 1 11\/16\"\u003cbr\u003eBirds Fingerboard Inlays\u003cbr\u003eNeck Pickup: PRS McCarty III Humbucker\u003cbr\u003eBridge Pickup: PRS McCarty III Humbucker\u003cbr\u003eVolume Control\u003cbr\u003eMaster Tone w\/Push\/Pull for Single Coil\u003cbr\u003eSwitching: 3-Way Toggle Pickup Selector\u003cbr\u003eBridge: PRS Stoptail w\/Brass Inserts\u003cbr\u003eTuners: PRS Phase III Non-Locking w\/Wing Buttons\u003cbr\u003eHardware: Nickel\u003cbr\u003eNut: Bone\u003cbr\u003eIncluded: PRS Hardshell Case\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PRS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53484547703081,"sku":"260420294","price":5540.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0013\/6111\/7231\/files\/DSC8111_eac44a31-0776-4684-8436-79ef36a5b24f.jpg?v=1789669171","url":"https:\/\/musicgalleryinc.com\/products\/prs-mccarty-electric-guitar-in-mccarty-tobacco-sunburst-260420294","provider":"The Music Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
