2008 McCarty 1957/2008 Limited Edition, #51/150, 10-Top 1-piece quilted top in Charcoal Burst.
First release of the famous 57/08 pickups! Now forever mine!
Pound for pound it’s probably my favourite PRS run ever! I’ve one in raspberry myself.
If I’m right about the wood in this run, you’re going to notice the guitar sounds different from any other PRS guitar.
It’s “Peruvian Mahogany”, my friend.Congrats, what a top!
Tonart, what wood was used for this run?
It’s “Peruvian Mahogany”, my friend.
The Dirty 100 had Peruvian Mahogany as well.Thank you. I’ve never heard of another guitar using that strain of mahogany. Very interesting.
The Artist V and 53/10 limited runs also had the same neck wood, but the 57/08 limiteds are a different kettle of tone, somehow.Thank you. I’ve never heard of another guitar using that strain of mahogany. Very interesting.
