PRS S2 McCarty 594 Electric Guitar - Fire Red Burst
Brand new!
Equipped with the same USA-made pickups found on PRS’s world-class Core line instruments, the PRS S2 McCarty 594 blends top-shelf PRS tone with the S2 Series’ elegantly understated aesthetics. Borrowing from the time-tested McCarty 594 tradition, this guitar boasts a maple-topped mahogany body that supplies all the chewy midrange and treble bite you could ever ask for. Old-school 6-string fanatics will be sure to favor the slightly chunky feel of the mahogany neck’s Pattern Vintage profile, while the sleek 10-inch-radius rosewood fingerboard proudly displays PRS’s iconic Birds inlays. Every PRS instrument comes equipped with supremely reliable hardware. Thus, it’s no surprise the S2 McCarty 594’s PRS proprietary vintage-style tuning machines and 2-piece stoptail bridge ensure your setup remains lock tight. Still, the true cherry on top lies in this guitar’s USA-made dual 58/15 LT pickups — extraordinarily dynamic vintage-voiced humbuckers that fuel the refined tones of PRS’s ultra-premium Core guitars and Private Stock masterpieces.
Features

- Time-tested tonewood combo of a mahogany body and a maple top grants rich midrange warmth and clearly defined trebles
- Full-feeling mahogany Pattern Vintage neck profile

- Sustain-enhancing PRS 2-piece bridge represents the peak of 6-string stability

Chunky Pattern Vintage neck profile
This guitar’s Pattern Vintage profile clocks in on the chunkier side of the spectrum, featuring a distinct asymmetrical profile that conforms to your grip, from the base all the way to the neck joint. While it’s a thicker shape, it’s by no means clunky — guitarists across all styles have come to favor the Pattern Vintage profile for its comfortably full feel. Combined with the PRS S2 McCarty 594’s slightly shorter 24.594-inch scale length, this guitar brandishes a decidedly old-school flavor that’s all but guaranteed to resonate with vintage 6-string enthusiasts.
Dual-coil power, single-coil clarity
Rooted in the past with an eye toward the future, PRS 58/15 LT humbuckers perfectly capture the dual-coil magic of a late ’50s humbucker, then enhance it with all the benefits of modern construction. The result? A pickup with focused mids, balanced lows and highs, and unmatched clarity. In a nutshell, it’s a sound that’s equal parts classic humbucker warmth and stunning single-coil snap. What’s more, this iteration of the 58/15 sports an LT (low turn) wind for a slightly more vintage feel than the standard version, lowering the output to provide an open and resonant tone.
Straight out of Stevensville, Maryland
In 2013, PRS launched the S2 series. Designed as workhorse guitars for the modern musician, this line of instruments offered American-made PRS quality with a non-nonsense feature set. The PRS S2 McCarty 594 elevates the S2 series far beyond its already impressive beginnings, sporting the same USA-made humbucking pickups found on PRS Core line and Private Stock instruments. The result is a genuinely uncompromising sonic masterpiece that proudly brandishes the traditional pared-back visuals of the S2 series but harbors the same expressive tone as PRS’s most premium offerings.
