Hi, everyone I am new here. This is my first post:shakehands:
So someone selling me a 00's limited run (1 of 250) Brazilian Rosewood McCarty with 10 top in Vintage Burst.
Mint condition and for the price I cannot refuse.
I had 2 PRS before. A single trem ME and a CU24.(Both gone)
but never a McCarty because I kinda wary of PRS stoptail lack of individual intonation problem.
I want to seek advise from you PRS gurus.
1 .What can I expect of this instrument? What is the feel and tone McCarty differentiate between CU and SC?
2. I hear McCarty pickups sound a bit muddy and dark? If I want to replace them; any good one recommend?
(looking for balance and sweet clean, alinco II prefered but will not consider 5909/DGT/5708 as the used price quite ridiculous to me, I've seen 800 for a pair of DGT pickups )
3. Anyone know if this batch McCarty BRW limited run use stump BRW?
4. Most importantly, if I tune this instrument to Drop C or even lower, with original stoptail will the intonation way off? say I use 12-52 strings.
Thanks in advance. :adore::adore:
