It's the McCarty 58!

The PRS McCarty 58 is a very special guitar. Ted McCarty stands out among the few great guitar makers in the history of the instrument for the ability he had to embrace new ideas and to recognize genius when he saw it. In the spirit of McCarty's contribution to the golden age of the electric guitar, Paul Reed Smith honors his legacy with the PRS McCarty 58 solidbody. With its Artist Grade Maple Top, 57/08 humbuckers, locking tuners, Pattern neck, and V12 finish, the 58 serves up gorgeous tone, amazing playability, and stunning visuals. If you're a guitarist, put the PRS McCarty 58 on your wish list.

PRS McCarty 58 at a Glance:

• Pattern profile neck
  
• PRS V12 finish
  
• PRS Phase III locking tuners

Pattern profile neck
The McCarty 58 is fitted with PRS's Pattern neck. A hallmark of PRS quality, neck shapes are, of course, critical to your playing experience. Perfected after years of prototyping, the Pattern neck is an updated Wide Fat PRS neck style based on designs Paul Reed Smith did in the '70s and '80s for Carlos Santana, Peter Frampton and Howard Leese of Heart. The McCarty 58's bound rosewood fingerboard is butter under your fingertips, and with exquisite mother-of-pearl and Paua Heart Bird inlays, no one will mistake your axe for anything other than a PRS.

PRS V12 finish
This McCarty 58 is finished in a stunning PRS V12 finish. If you're seeking pure vintage gestalt with a sophisticated edge, your search ends here. Over a decade in the making, PRS' V12 finish blends the thin, resonance-enhancing characteristics of a nitro finish with the non-cracking reliability you expect from a modern acrylic finish. It has a classic feel all its own - your 58 will feel like an old instrument, but will stay flawless-looking for years to come.

PRS Phase III locking tuners
Tuners are often thought of as being somewhat utilitarian, but in a hardtail guitar that's where the tuning stability buck stops. PRS Phase III locking tuners are an elegant design with smooth, high-tolerance pegs, large buttons, an open back, and closed housing. And, yes - locking tuners do make a difference on a hardtail!
