McCartys... Let's see 'em!

Technically a McCarty, I really want a solid body one soon.

My favs:
My #1 Regular McCarty in Trampas Green Smokeburst and TCI 58/15 LTs. Regular wrap around bridge

And my newest one: Artist Edition Black Gold Burst with Brazilian Fretboard and 58/15 TMs. Brass Insert Wrap Around Bridge

Love that smokeburst, but can't see the Artist!

Rosewood McCarty Soapbar Standard. At one point, Paul put the kibosh on this particular combination. Been a few years ago now.

Scroll thru should work. If not let me know. I made the pics public now.

All 594 versions but my favorite model.

All three are tremendous.
Tell me about the pups in the SC.

Depends if you want the white case it inherited from the blue one.

You’re more likely to walk through a nice hotel lobby with it though.

the standard 58/15LT in the neck and a 59/09 in the bridge

the standard 58/15LT in the neck and a 59/09 in the bridge

The 5909 is a pup I'm sadly unfamiliar with. Nice!

It’s hotter than the 58/15’s, perfect for a bridge pickup.

The best story I can say about this one is that when I first saw it on PSF, not in a million years did I imagine it would one day land at my door.

 

[Alnus Rubra]

FIFY

That standard though! Droooooool.

The original McCarty caught my eye and shifted me away from wanting a Custom 24 (needing a fixed bridge). This lead to a few 594's following me home...

(Gratuitous money shot of my #1, natural back for the win!):

OK next up is a guitar that came about as a result of a "suggestion" from @AP515
The "suggestion" was to wake up and try something different. That "suggestion" made me go on a hunt for many weeks.
The more I looked and listened the more I wanted one.
I finally found one across the border, but the seller didn't want to ship to me.
Then I found "the one".
Killer price, and a whacky 10 top to boot. A 2018 594 soapbar in Trampas green.
Seen in the Soapbar thread...





So playable and amazingly versatile for such a simple design.

@dmatthews that trampas green soapy gets me weak in the knees everytime I see it! Beautiful. There is something about that color that resonates with me. Awesome guitar!
