McCarty 594: PRS's Revisited "Old School" DNA
With the McCarty 594, PRS offers a very musical interpretation of classic codes: smooth playing sensations, precise intonation across the entire neck, and a decidedly timeless aesthetic. This 2025 model retains the series' identity while relying on McCarty III pickups, designed to provide grain, dynamics, and excellent response to the guitar's volume control.
For Which Guitarist and Styles?
The PRS McCarty 594 Aurora Borealis is aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking a high-end electric capable of performing in rehearsals, on stage, and in the studio. It excels in blues, rock, pop, and jazz: from thick, singing riffs to more airy rhythms, it remains expressive and highly controllable, especially through the separate volume controls.
Sound Characteristics
The mahogany (body/neck) and carved flamed maple (top) duo provides a highly sought-after balance: a warm, dense foundation enriched with attack and definition in the upper spectrum, along with generous sustain. The McCarty III pickups deliver a rich, articulate, and "vocal" humbucker tone, ideal for smooth leads as well as edgy crunches. Thanks to the two volumes and two push/pull tone controls, you can precisely refine each pickup's response and access clearer, more nuanced tones close to the single-coil spirit, without losing the instrument's overall coherence.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To stay as close as possible to the original setup, a set of electric guitar strings gauge 10-46 is the safest choice. A microfiber cleaning cloth is perfect for preserving the finish and hardware's shine on a daily basis.
