Introduced during PRS's 30th Anniversary year, the reimagined 2015 Core McCarty brought one of the company's most celebrated designs back into the lineup with updated vintage-inspired appointments and the debut of PRS's highly regarded 58/15 humbuckers.
This example is finished in striking Blood Orange over a beautifully figured carved maple top, paired with a slightly thicker mahogany back designed to enhance resonance and sustain. A mahogany Pattern neck and rosewood fingerboard maintain the classic McCarty formula, while striking bird inlays featuring abalone centers with mother-of-pearl outlines add an especially elegant visual touch. A thin rosewood headstock veneer completes the upscale aesthetic.
At the heart of the guitar is a pair of original PRS 58/15 humbuckers. Introduced during PRS's 30th Anniversary year and designed by Paul Reed Smith, the 58/15 set delivers a vintage-inspired voice with excellent clarity, focused mids, and plenty of harmonic detail. A push/pull tone control provides coil-splitting for additional single-coil-style sounds, making the McCarty exceptionally versatile while retaining its vintage character.
The McCarty's slightly thicker mahogany body, 25" scale length, 22-fret Pattern neck, PRS stoptail bridge, and Phase III locking tuners combine vintage inspiration with the precision and playability for which PRS Core instruments are known.
Weighing just 7 lbs. 11.6 oz., this example is comfortably balanced and remains in very good condition. It displays some light surface scratches, small nicks, and other minor evidence of normal use, but presents beautifully overall.
Includes its original PRS hardshell case.
