What's up guys - I ordered a McCarty 594 SE yesterday based off of reviews, my experience with the quality of the DGT SE, and also my love for my Core McCarty 594 Semi-Hollow.
This top is one of the main reasons I ordered THIS specific one. Sheesh - it's hard to believe that's a veneer top.
My reason for posting is... How close to the picture do you think the actual guitar will look? I'll be honest, my 10 top Core McCarty is in the same ballpark flame-wise. This thing is truly impressive looking for a sub-1k guitar. But I know how pictures can be enhanced, proper lighting, etc.
Really looking forward to getting it and digging in on it. I love my Core 594, but really dislike the idea of gigging it/beating it up/it getting lifted- I've been grabbing my other guitars to take to the gig instead of my Core 594. This will hopefully serve that purpose.
Anyone played an SE MC594? Feedback appreciated on how close it is to the Core model/any notable differences that aren't already listed on the spec sheet. I've heard pickups are very close to the Core. How is the coil split? I love running neck split/bridge hum - has an airy top to the note (that may be part of it being a semi-hollow too). Just curious!
Appreciate any feedback.
