Keeps the Blues away.....



This stunning PRS Private stock McCarty Singlecut features a beautiful Faded Turquoise Smokeburst finish.

Named after Paul’s mentor and a legend in the guitar industry, the Private Stock McCarty Singlecut is a direct reflection of Ted McCarty’s work in the 1950’s on solidbody guitars and everything he taught Paul decades later. It is simultaneously a look back to the golden age of guitar building, the culmination of Paul’s experience studying vintage guitars, and PRS’s history making McCarty instruments. With a thicker back for a more robust tone and “flat jumbo” fretwire lightly ground down to feel like an “old friend,” the Private Stock McCarty Singlecut embodies vintage tone and classic feel.

The McCarty Singlecut's Features include a carved figured maple top, thick mahogany back, 24 ½” scale length, 22 fret Pattern mahogany neck, figured maple bound Madagascar rosewood fretboard, Madagascar rosewood headstock veneer, mammoth ivory bird inlays and headstock eagle, plated nickel/silver 57/08 pickups with two volume and two tone controls with a 3-way toggle pickup switch on the upper bout, the trademark Santana headstock shape, bone nut, PRS Phase III locking tuners, “flat jumbo” fretwire, custom –machined PRS two-piece bridge, nickel hardware, and a paisley hardshell case.
