S2 594 opinions

Pretty much decided my next guitar will be an S2 594 . I am wondering if there will be tonal difference in the single cut and the double cut. Anyone have any experience with these two options on the core 594s ?

 

I’ve always believed that there is more low end on an SC. That’s what I hear, but then again I’m old, senile, and grew up playing Singlecuts.

 

I would expect a little more midrange from the thin line. Outside of that I have no idea

 

I hear the same thing, but then again I'm older, seniler, and grew up playing an acoustic.

 

I prefer a brighter guitar and I have owned both DC and SC 594s. The SC was definitely a bit fatter / warmer and what you would consider classically "LP-like" to my ears.

I would expect the S2s to be similar all other things being equal.

That being said I am uberstoked for the thinline because it's the closest thing to an SG that I may actually been able to "marry" lol. I can see a cherry one at some point in my future...

 

I had both at one time. SC has more push in the lower/mids than the DC. I prefer the SC tone with hotter pickups but DC ergonomics are easier on my achey breaky back.

 

Thanks for the replies. For clarity I was just trying to compare the SC, vs the double cut both with the maple cap. Not the thin line all mahgoney model.

When I saw the hollow body and hollow body ll se come out I thought. " I wonder if they will release a 594 se? But I'll certainly take a 594 S2.

 

Ooh I almost heard a Billy Ray Cyrus song in the background.

Almost.

 

I almost saw a mullet!

 

I did get a haircut yesterday

 

I know I want the burnt amber finish, and I am leaning more towards a DC myself (I have enough SC's). Did anyone else notice that the SC in all the videos at NAMM was a 2 tone color (amber top / red back)? Odd as that is not a standard color they will produce??? It was a really nice looking guitar though!

 

That's McCarty Sunburst

 

If that is true, it looks nothing like the stock photos I have seen anywhere....

 

Mullets are back! Didn't ya hear?

 

Shoot me now!

 

Yup. There's a lot of variation in that color depending how they spray the burst. Sometimes it's so light you can barely even see the burst.

 

Does this mean 80s rock is back too? Cause I can get all behind that!

 

Giggle

 

Don't tempt me!!!

 

This. Well, not hitting senility yet. I mean, I mostly all here, there or everywhere.
