The McCarty Masterpiece
A defined legacy. The McCarty series is dedicated to Ted McCarty, one of the pioneers of electric guitars. PRS have made these guitars the centrepieces of their innovations in homage to McCarty’s own knack for innovations. They boast some of the finest features and best playability around – and they play to perfection. Now adding the S2 to the series, PRS have innovated once again to bring you a stunning collection of premium guitars.
Refined humbuckers
They work hard. Delivering clear, punchy, and articulate tones, the 58/15 ‘S’ humbuckers will take your sound where it needs to go. Offering plenty of output but being well-balanced tonally, they’ll project your riffs with pristine clarity, whether you’re using lots if gain or none at all. You’ll be unlocking heaps of sonic potential through these pickups.
The bridge features the classic, high output humbucker voicing with more than enough bite and growl, mixed with warmth and balance. It’ll make chords ring out like bells and give riffs an unrivalled definition. Then there’s the neck pickup. Perfect for playing wailing lead lines and thickening chords up, it has a majestic voicing of its own. Together, these pickups will raise your riffs to the sky.
A world of sonic potential
Still not impressed? Well, let’s delve into the S2’s coil splitting function. Fluctuate between snappy single-coil tones and hot, humbucking character with the simple flick of a switch. By splitting the humbucker coils, you are able to explore this model’s sonic variety in order to sculpt your sound the way you want. And, with a 3-toggle switch, volume, and tone controls implemented for good measure, you have total freedom of the PRS’s unique voice. It’s yours to discover.
Play without limits
Ultimately, a guitar should spark creativity – not restrict it. Which is why every aspect of the S2 McCarty is constructed with playability in mind. Experience easy transitions across the entirety of the fingerboard thanks to an ultra-smooth rosewood surface. It’s combined with a satisfying pattern vintage mahogany neck, which fits perfectly into the palm of your hand, entailing endless hours of comfortable practice and performance. Enjoy endless access to the upper frets with an ergonomic, dual-cutaway body design. So, whether you’re shredding up high or unleashing fat, low-end riffs, the S2 McCarty offers a feel that’s tailored to you.
True individual style
It demands audience attention. With a finish so eye-catching, how could it not? A mahogany body with a maple top provides a breathtaking aesthetic, showcasing the S2 McCarty’s sumptuous grain pattern. But its elegant design isn’t just limited to the body. The iconic PRS bird inlays dance across the silky-smooth fingerboard for even more individual flair. Topped off with a custom finish, the S2 McCarty 594 simply radiates a one-of-a-kind style. So, whether you’re rehearsing, or playing live – it’s all eyes on you.
