So,
a friend of mine has just bought a NOS '18 McCarty and right away we did the unboxing at my place.
It's a core plain one, no 10 top, no special options, no WL. Great guitar, light, beautiful sustain and tone... everything is perfect in this one.
What puzzles me is that this PRS is a one piece top. I've seen it as an option in some WL or PS guitars. In this case, the top is mildly flamed (almost plain) with some vertical lines/strikes.
He has bought it unseen from an online store here in Spain, and it was sold just as a McCarty (no mention to the one piece top, which leads me to think this is just some sort of happy coincidence that sometime in a while a top comes and the factory decides to use it just in one piece)
So what do you know about one piece tops in core guitars and what do you think about this one? I would've expected a better flame instead of a one piece top, but I guess it's just a matter of opinions.
Some pictures although the light is not great.
