The original McCarty from PRS in Cobalt Blue.
Named after electric guitar pioneer Ted McCarty, this model has been a part of the PRS Core Series since 1994, making it a benchmark among PRS guitars. With its traditional construction paired with modern PRS features, it offers a classic playing experience for modern guitarists with a Paul Reed Smith look. For improved Sustain, the McCarty's mahogany body is kept slightly thicker with a PRS signature beautiful curly maple top, and features a sturdy mahogany neck with 22-fret rosewood fingerboard. Through the PRS TCI (Tuned Capacitance and Inductance) process, two 58/15 LT pickups in neck and bridge positions are tuned to the right mix of modern and vintage, making the PRS McCarty a go-to electric guitar for any genres between and around blues and rock.
Modern design with vintage appointments: this is how the McCarty in Cobalt Blue from the Core series by PRS presents itself.
The PRS McCarty's Nitro-Over-CAB finish lets the grain of the Cobalt Blue curly maple top shine through.
Modern vintage sound with 58/15 pickups.
The 58/15 LT pickups in neck and bridge position take inspiration from the original Ted McCarty humbuckers of the fifties, but with slightly more modern sound design. Thus the two dual coils on the amp deliver a creamy warm Vintage sound with clearly defined highs, which can be adjusted by the coil split function with Volume and push/pull tone control as well as 3-way switching.
The double cut body of the McCarty electric guitar from PRS provides comfortable access even in the higher frets.
