In Praise Of The McCarty - "Classic" and "Reissue"

Well, I can’t speak for any others in the run, but my 1995 McCarty 10th anniversary is to ME the equivalent of owning a 59 Les Paul….. I know that sounds a bit far-fetched, but I will be replying in detail. And, it’s not about the looks…. It’s about the sound, how it resonates and sustains. This guitar is so good it’s ridiculous. More to come

Spectacular!
 
My current members of the McCarty family are the McCarty Singlecut PS and the DGT (which is basically a Grissom-spec'd McCarty).

They're at the heart of my little handful of guitars.

Speaking of "little handfuls" my niece asked me over the weekend if I could record her 12 year old daughter who'd written a song - quite a good one, btw. I said sure, what's she going to play?

My niece said she'd play piano and guitar. I asked if she had her own guitars with her (they're from out of town). My neice said, sure, in fact she has 5 guitars. 5! Age 12!

I said it's the exact number of guitars I have after being at this work for a lifetime. Somehow I managed to restrain myself from asking why on earth a 12 year old kid needs 5 guitars.

My semi-hollow 594, is in my avatar pic…it’s fabulous! I miss my 2008 Ted so much..that’s the one that got away! I was going through a major G.A.S time, and made a very regrettable decision on that one. I’m thinking of restarting the hunt for another Ted, after seeing one again!

TED's Are Always A Good Way To Go IMO.
