The McCarty 594 Singlecut | Demo | PRS Guitars

[@defsantiago]

I want to imagine that my man Brian’s left thumb has blisters on it from chopping wood to build a log cabin or re-roofing a house or something. Coolest guitar demos. Love my SC245 (the precursor to the 594)

[@IDriveAnAudi]

I have a 594 core and those 58/15LT pickups are gorgeous sounding! I love the middle position with the volume on the bass pickup rolled back. My McCarty 594 and my ES-335 make an incredible pair.

[@cmonsterz]

Single cut 594 + Sonzera = total Cloud 9! Absolutely magnificent!

[@Ptyasm]

At 3.14 i can hear champagne supernova vibe.

[@lukaszbohdal8749]

I have 2001 Singlecut. It's fantastic with hot vintage sounds and great sustain. Bought Fiore last year and I love it too. It's more vertisale than Singlecut with strat and tele sounds but less meaty sound. Magic guitars

[@warrenkrivoniak7374]

I had a chance in the late 90's to buy a used McCarty lefthanded and passed due to the $1,200 price tag. BIG mistake. Great video

[@andrewsun4385]

Awesome!!!🌟🌟💯💯

[@liorauf]

Insaneee!!!

[@jayteesgear]

Love the intro! Sorta … Bad Co meets, Knopfler. I like this Red! Bravo

[@geusefrava960]

Just bought an se 594. Saving up for the core version. 15 years ago i had to tell all my les pauls due to an unfortunate situation. The 594 is just so much better, It's unbelievable.

[@trfmusic902]

I just want them to make lefty single cut guitars, SE and Core models

[@jayteesgear]

Been there bro! Congrats on gettin back in the game! Those SE’s are just as exciting to me as these Cores! 🙌🏻

[@anmolatwal]

As much as i love Bryan's playing and PRS guitars in general, there should be a "What's new"? Mention as well.

[@edmiglia]

Exactly! What's new besides the tuning buttons?

[@clos87]

Not sure what “new” you’d expect on a guitar based on a 50s instrument. Guitars peaked in the 50s and 60s, everything has been done already.

[@anmolatwal]

@@clos87 not true.....PRS is always tinkering and coming up with additions and upgrades.

[@anmolatwal]

@@clos87 newer finishes, switching, pickups, colors, hardware...anything and everything °

[@ErebosGR]

@@anmolatwal Nothing that PRS does is actually cutting-edge. On the contrary, as time went by, they're going more retro than forward-thinking, because that's where the money is.

[@babetopaz]

I am extremely lucky to own one in purple iris, this through a BadCat Cub is sublime either clean or dirty.

[@remembertheblacksabbath]

Need these in a lefty!!!

[@t0msie]

One day

[@davidohara6515]

Sweet guitar ( looking at a used one at the minute) . V nice tones , but honestly, I struggled to hear much difference in the treble pup combo. Mibbee years of sirens and big bangs have done their worst ! . Great review any way.

[@itaiarad098320]

A few months ago I was planning to buy this guitar exactly, but then I came across a 2001 Custom 22 for sale on some local second-hand board. So I bought it instead. RIDICULOUS guitar. The problem is, for some reason I still crave to get my hands on one of your singlecuts so bad. And these videos sure don't help... Dear PRS please stop teasing us!!

[@JTB--]

58/15 LT pickups or 85/15? I like the 85/15 being a little hotter for hard rock and solo's

[@bogarbill6331]

58/15 LT

[@MatteoTorgy]

I wish my 2021 594 had those tuning pegs.

[@gmoulder4567]

My 2017 594 came with metal Phase 3 locking tuners and these plastic ones just look cheap in comparison.

[@MatteoTorgy]

@@gmoulder4567 do the plastic ones on a ‘59 Les Paul look cheap?

[@gmoulder4567]

@@MatteoTorgy Yes, especially when they get brittle and crack.

[@stuartkinzel8195]

Not sure about the new tuner buttons. Ergonomically, they may be good, but visually they look a little off. Not tall enough for the length.

[@vonbleak101]

Please do a Soapbar version of this guitar, in gold top, please... :P

[@mikeomatic9905]

They did a limited run of soapbar 594s a few years ago. Not sure if there were any gold tops though.

[@vonbleak101]

Yeah i know and they are hard to find now, and yeah i want a gold top lol... @@mikeomatic9905

Can you order this guitar with out the coil splitting? Thank you.

Consider demonizing this channel. It’s pretty ridiculous to expect someone to watch an ad to watch an ad.

You can’t demonize my man Bryan!

You always sound great Brian!

[@srubel59]

Does anyone know if the McCarty 594 SC has the larger DGT fret wire?

[@jayteesgear]

Good question! Id like to see more Jumbo fret- PRS’

[@youKnowWho3311]

The modern play-ability and tone are surely impeccable. I have yet to own a 594. I have many other Core models, but I am certain it's everything I wanted my Les Pauls to be. I bought every single PRS I have ever owned sight unseen via the web. Every one of them are exceptional guitars. 513, Custom 24 (My first in 1999), SC245, Private stock Custom 22, and MCCarty Gold w/p90's. There is a reason PRS is coming on strong. Their instruments are a testament to an engineering, design, and production staff with an eye for detail and quality. Not an endorsee, just a man who is very passionate about the way these instruments make me feel. Good luck in your search!

[@citizenparker]

As an owner of a few PRS's, including a SC594, those tuners are not a step in the right direction.

[@tonychen3368]

Beautiful Fire Smokeburst on this one, incredible!

[@T.TEXAS.TILLER]

Tremendous!

[@uhhdudeuhhwhatsup]

I wish yall made these in lefty

[@leftygtrplr6184]

Agreed. Ridiculous that they offer very little selection for left-handers. Gibson is getting like that too.

[@tomstegall1346]

My new se 594 single cut sure sounds good, it’s amazing how it’s tone is so comparable to the core

[@kwyatt261]

See my problem is that I only like to play shitty guitars

[@ericirwin4901]

Great demo playing, and awesome looking and sounding guitar. But wondering if i am the only one who couldn’t hear a whole hill of beans difference in the sound of any of the middle position coil split tones. Listening with headphones even and was surprised at how little difference I heard. I ended up going Tremonti a few years back b/c of the simplicity of the switching options: treble, middle, and bass…and that’s it! Sure, there are somedays I daydream of having one that is maybe a little more versatile perhaps vs. a metal/hard rock machine, but then I think about push/pulling knobs and having to think about what knob does which pickup and I’m right back to being happy with the simplicity of the Tremonti. 😂

[@mikeomatic9905]

I have a Core SC594. In the middle position, splitting just the bridge pickup doesn’t change the sound too much. But splitting the neck pickup is quite different, and splitting both gives a nice acoustic-ish sound. (Obviously it’s not like an acoustic, but I find it’s great for strumming.)

[@karabinerstudios]

In the middle position, splitting the treble pickup had the least amount of change to me, but I could still hear it. The others were much more obvious.

[@monkeysmasher7628]

At the end of the day, it's just another Les Paul copy. Renember, PRS started with a unique design, nowadays they copy Strats, Teles and LPs. Stick to your guns!

[@paisteplayer1040]

Keep telling yourself that.. A copy that corrects Gibson's mistakes and there are many I have owned dozens of LP standards traditional none even came close to the quality of these 594's

[@paisteplayer1040]

Also 100% with Ted Mccartys blessing and Teds knowledge.

[@NINEWALKING]

I own guitars from many brands, and I love them all for what they are. I have been involved with guitars and things around them for decades. One thing I can tell you is that with 100% certainty, PRS and Paul himself are the most innovative and progress driving force in the business. For him/them, it is all about how to improve a thing. For example, Gibson can't just change classic models. People would not be happy, and people buy mostly just specific models. I own a very specific LP from Murphy Lab, and I want it period specific. It's an epic, Les Paul. But I own 594 as well. Wood Library series. However, they might or might not sound similar, they play completely differently. Over decades, one gets proficient with an LP and you do not feel any more how bad is ergonomics on it and how often the G string goes out if tune. You play around it and do stuff to make it work. Playing 594 just feels like realizing och that is how this should have been. Seemless, no effort, enjoyment, and ergonomics despite the construction. More details and sweeter. It looks like another instrument in SC form, but it is not an LP. If I want to play LP, my Gibson does that genuinely. Can 594 fake LP and some single coil guitars? Yes, it can. Does it need to? Nope. It dies its own thing. When you have played it enough, you get it. They are not the copy they are evolution that took it to another place. Different place that earns them right to be there.

[@bogarbill6331]

⁠@@paisteplayer1040Same Here, I still have a Murphy lab LP but my Mcarty SC is so much better and together with my CS’52 Tele it gets the most playing time

[@paisteplayer1040]

@@NINEWALKING I fully agree. I own one Gibson LP, rest have been sold.. And it s a studio.. A, AAA top rootbeer burst flame top.. It holds tune well for an LP.. It does not hold a candle to PRS tuning stability and intonation. people are just assuming PRS is copying Gibson when they only thing the 594 has in common with LP is looks.. Everything else is far differnt, and corrected so many mistakes, example steep bridge angle to nut, strings coming out the nut and sharply curving outward to tuners, the headstock angle being so far bent back..
