The PRS McCarty 594 is all about giving you that classic, vintage vibe without sacrificing modern playability and reliability. With a bound 22-fret ‘Pattern Vintage’ neck and a slightly thicker body for extra tone and sustain, this guitar feels like an old friend from the moment you pick it up.

McCarty III pickups, premium hardware

Looking for fat, warm humbucker tones? Or maybe you want those sweet, articulate single-coil sounds? The McCarty 594 nails both thanks to its McCarty III pickups and clever dual volume and push/pull tone controls. Switching between sonic worlds has never been easier.

The McCarty III humbuckers are the result of years of PRS R&D, blending vintage inspiration with cutting-edge tech. They deliver a full, warm tone with vocal-like clarity that really sings. Add in a zinc two-piece bridge with brass saddles, a bone nut and PRS Phase III tuners with brass shafts, and you’ve got a guitar that’s built to sound incredible and stay that way.

Paul Reed Smith on the McCarty 594

“One of my sayings is that everything that touches the string is God — well, that’s really the bridge, the nut and the tuners. These specifications make a huge difference in the guitar’s tone, sustain and character.” — Paul Reed Smith

The McCarty story

This tale goes way back to the late ’80s, when Paul teamed up with legendary guitar designer Ted McCarty. Ted’s wisdom shaped PRS guitars for decades, and in 1994, the first McCarty model was born — a tribute to everything Paul learned from his mentor. The McCarty 594 carries that legacy forward with style.

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

Guitars

Guitars cover a wide range of instruments designed to suit different styles, techniques, and sounds, from acoustic and classical models to solid body, semi-hollow, and hollow electric designs. Factors like body shape, scale length, neck profile, string type, and pickups all influence how a guitar feels and responds, making each type suited to different players and musical approaches. Whether used for rhythm, lead, songwriting, or experimentation, guitars are expressive, versatile instruments that form the heart of countless genres and playing styles.

Solid Body Electric Guitars

Solid body electric guitars are built from a solid piece or pieces of wood, giving them excellent sustain, stability, and resistance to feedback at higher volumes. This construction makes them well suited to amplified playing across a wide range of styles, from clean and articulate tones to heavy, high-gain sounds. Their design allows pickups and hardware to play a major role in shaping tone, while the solid body provides a consistent, reliable feel. Solid body electric guitars are valued for their durability, versatility, and ability to perform confidently on stage and in the studio.
