Description
The PRS Wood Library McCarty 594 Hollowbody II Platinum Limited-Edition captures the rich, resonant tone of a classic hollow-body in an instrument loaded with versatile appointments for today's player. Its all-mahogany construction delivers the warm, woody sound revered by jazz, blues and rock players alike. Meanwhile, the 58/15 LT "Tuned" pickups and flexible control layout let you dial in everything from buttery clean tones to hot-rodded overdrive with ease.
Hollow Body Resonance With Classic Warmth
At the heart of the McCarty 594 Hollowbody II lies a fully hollow body crafted from resonant mahogany. This construction allows every note to bloom with complex overtones as the body resonates like an acoustic guitar's soundbox. You can expect a warm, organic tone with lots of woody character whether playing chords or single notes. The hollowbody design excels at recreating vintage jazz tones as well as delivering the midrange punch and smooth sustain craved by blues and rock stylists.
Vintage-Inspired "Tuned" Pickups For Rich Clarity
To capture the McCarty's authentic hollow-body voice, PRS turned to their own 58/15 LT "Tuned" pickups. These vintage-inspired humbuckers were designed to recreate the warm yet articulate tones of classic PAF pickups from the late 1950s. The tuned coils and capacitance values allow each note to ring out with excellent string-to-string definition. You can dig in with confidence knowing these pickups will translate every nuance whether playing delicate jazz lines or red-hot blues licks.
Expansive Tonal Shaping With Flexible Controls
While the McCarty's fundamental tone captures vintage hollow-body magic, its control layout keeps you firmly in the modern era. Individual volume controls for each pickup let you blend their outputs for endless creative possibilities. The push/pull tone control takes it even further by splitting pickup coils or deactivating the neck or bridge pickup entirely. This wealth of options lets you shift from thick humbucker crunch to bright single-coil spank with a twist of the knobs.
Built For Sustain And Tuning Stability
Beyond its impressive versatility, the McCarty 594 Hollowbody II incorporates premium components built to withstand the demands of the stage. Its zinc two-piece bridge transfers string energy efficiently for improved resonance and sustain. Vintage-style tuners with a modern 18:1 ratio make staying in tune a breeze even with drastic tremolo work. The maple neck and fingerboard live up to PRS's reputation for silky playability. From its first strum, everything about this guitar feels solid and refined.
