Kick all kinds of a$$. I started going through watching some old vids on my computer. Ran across a video I did on a McCarty 5708 guitar prior to selling. I usually do that to document all the controls are working and whatnot. I slightly regret selling EVERYTHING that's in that crappy little video, cause it sounded great.
It's funny how when the latest and greatest new thing comes out everyone kinda moves along to that. The 5708 is still my favorite neck pickup PRS makes. I have one covered(as matched set) and one uncovered paired with a \m/ bridge pickup on my PS. I think it's probably one of the keys to my sound, honestly. Much of the time, I'm on the high gain channel of the Archon but ride my 5708 neck pickup volume knob between 3-5 for a clean to semi crunch tone. I keep the bridge wide open a lot and switch between that cleanish tone to the middle position to full bridge humbucker.
Anyway just throwin' some love out for the 57/08.
