Description
2024 PRS McCarty - McCarty Sunburst
If you are chasing golden-era vintage soul wrapped in modern Maryland craftsmanship, the PRS McCarty in classic McCarty Sunburst is calling your name. First introduced in 1994 as a heartfelt tribute to Paul Reed Smith’s friend and mentor, legendary Gibson president Ted McCarty, this model pays homage to the golden age of electric guitar design. That unmistakable blend of classic warmth and effortless playability made the McCarty platform an instant favorite among discerning tone-chasers—most notably Texas virtuoso David Grissom, who relied on the McCarty as his primary stage and studio workhorse for years, alongside powerhouse players like Warren Haynes and Jimmy Herring.
Built with a slightly thicker mahogany back and crowned with a gorgeous carved maple top, the McCarty rings out with piano-like sustain and rich acoustic resonance right out of the hardshell case. Its one-piece mahogany neck features PRS’s supremely comfortable Pattern profile and a faux-bone-bound rosewood fretboard adorned with iconic bird inlays. PRS also outfitted this model with lightweight Vintage-Style Non-Locking Tuners with Wing Buttons, trimming headstock mass so every note blooms freely alongside the ultra-resonant PRS Stoptail bridge with brass inserts.
Plug it in, and the pair of PRS McCarty LT ("Low Turn") humbuckers deliver sweet, vocal clarity with a focused midrange punch that stays articulate at any volume. Whether you are digging into creamy blues leads, crunchy classic rock rhythm work, or sparkling clean arpeggios, the master push/pull tone control unlocks crisp single-coil textures on the fly. Wrapped in a stunning High-Gloss Nitro McCarty Sunburst finish that lets the tonewoods breathe and age gracefully, this guitar is an inspiring lifelong companion for any stage or studio.
