Well, now…. If this isn’t one of the finest PRS we have ever seen, heck, one of THE finest guitars we have ever seen, then I don’t know what is! It is absolutely stunning on every level. First of all, let’s just talk about what it is. This is part of a 60 piece run run of guitars for 2018. It’s a McCarty 594 in terms of body shape and hardware, however it is completely Hollow, like a Hollow Body 2. In other words, PRS has officially combined the 2 coolest models they have ever produced (IMHO, of course)! This light weight guitar packs tons of tones thanks to the 58/15 LT Humbuckers. These have quickly become a shop favorite due to their supreme tap-ability. As hum buckers, they sound warm but with an open top end, and balanced mids. As single coils, they can snap and bite tike some of the best, time tested single coils around. The Hybrid Hardware as another layer of elegance to this already exquisite instrument. The woods are all Private Stock grade. From the beautiful top and back, to the insanely figured mahogany neck, to the sultry looking African Blackwood fingerboard and tuning keys, this is an absolute work of art. Other notables include inlaid paua, mother of pearl, Agoya birds, Private Stock Eagle on the headstock… every where you look, you’ll find something notable.
