We have found the 58\/15LT's to be our favorite pickup of all time but the new TCI tuned version takes things to a whole other level!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst off, we start with high-quality tonewoods in \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/musicgalleryinc.com\/blogs\/matts-blog\/what-is-maple-the-music-gallery-glossary-of-guitar-terms\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Learn about Maple as a tonewood for guitar\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eMaple\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/musicgalleryinc.com\/blogs\/matts-blog\/what-is-mahogany\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Learn about Mahogany as a tonewood for guitar\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eMahogany\u003c\/a\u003e, and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/musicgalleryinc.com\/blogs\/matts-blog\/what-is-rosewood-the-music-gallery-glossary-of-guitar-terms\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Learn about Rosewood as a tonewood for guitar\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eRosewood\u003c\/a\u003e. These woods combine for the classic double humbucker recipe giving you warmth, body, sustain, and natural compression. With a slightly thicker than normal mahogany body, the McCarty is built to sing! Since it's a PRS you know the wood selection is top-notch. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNamed after Ted McCarty, a pioneer of the electric guitar and musical instrument industry, the McCarty model embodies the most up-to-date findings from PRS and looks back to the golden age of the guitar. This vintage-appointed guitar features a bound, 22-fret Pattern neck, a slightly thicker back for enhanced tone and sustain, and 58\/15 LT treble and bass pickups, which have now been through the TCI (tuned capacitance and inductance) process. 58\/15 LT’s are a vintage style pickup with exceptional clarity and focused midrange. Paired with a push\/pull tone control and a 3-way toggle pickup switch, these pickups provide a complete palette of tones. The McCarty model is anchored by a PRS stoptail bridge with brass studs for added resonance and vintage-style tuners. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“One of my sayings is that everything that touches the string is God – well, that’s really the bridge, the nut, and the tuners. So when we went after the McCarty model, that’s where we looked. These updates make a huge difference in the tone. The guitar sustains longer and the tone has more character,” said Paul Reed Smith. “The puzzle pieces all fit together, and there is no compromise to the integrity of the instrument. We’re very happy.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor 2020, PRS has updated this model with TCI-tuned pickups and nitro over cellulose (CAB) finish.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the late 1980’s, Paul Reed Smith called on Ted McCarty to consult with him on guitar design and production techniques. He not only served as a mentor but became a great friend of Paul and everyone he met at PRS. In 1994, PRS released the first McCarty, an instrument that incorporated the full spectrum of techniques and knowledge Paul had gained from Ted as well as his own experiences as a guitar builder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePRS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2020 McCarty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarved Figured Maple Top\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharcoal Burst Finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMahogany Body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeighs 7 lbs 11 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e22 Frets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e25\" Scale Length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePattern Neck Shape\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMahogany Neck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRosewood Fingerboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFaux Bone Fingerboard Binding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBirds Fingerboard Inlays\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 and 11\/16\" Fingerboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTCI Tuned 58\/15LT Humbucker Pickups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaster Volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaster Tone w\/Push-Pull for Coil Tap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 Way Toggle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePRS Stoptail Piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVintage Style Tuners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNickel Hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal Hardshell Case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Axe Asylum","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67583823741059,"sku":"'0300256","price":544.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0744\/9260\/8643\/files\/Prs-mccarty-charcoal-burst-200300256-4.jpg?v=1790434307","url":"https:\/\/serdava.myshopify.com\/products\/prs-mccarty-in-charcoal-burst-0300256","provider":"serdava","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
