McCarty 594 - pup Etching for all?

[Keith B.]

Is the 58/15 etching on the pickup covers a standard, or is there any reason a certain guitar would NOT have those etched in?

Thank you.

I just looked at my 594 (late 2019), and at first glance I thought no etching. I had to change the angle to see it. I could see it not showing up in pictures. It's not as noticeable has previous years.

You want etching, put the pup covers in Ferric Chloride for a VERRY brief time, neutralize with Baking Soda solution, Wallah!!
