A little Archtop Help Needed

[Bowtiefanatc]

Hey Everyone,

My buddy just got a nice 1998 McCarty Archtop yesterday and I'm trying to help him figure out the mystery of the pickup cavity.

From my own knowledge and research I've determined that it's a '98 McCarty Archtop 2 with moons, non 10-top and no piezo (wasn't added as an option until '99).

If anyone has some decoder ring that can help understand anything in the pickup cavity that I haven't figured out it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!!

Does it have a serial number?

Oh, and I'd be afraid, very afraid.

Yeah I have the serial to Sean in customer service and he said that pre-2000 the info is really limited. There's no MODCAT because it's probably too old.

Ther serial is the number, which matches, and the AR2 for Archtop 2 as well as the color. But everything else is s mystery.
