So I am looking at a stable mate for my CE24 solid body with 57/08 pups which is my one and only guitar currently and I really enjoy.
I’m leaning toward a used McCarty 594 Single Cut but would welcome thoughts and input on the following …
1) Is there a specific model year(s) in this core model’s development over time that I should avoid or seek out? I’ve heard they made some changes with the bridge but not sure when. There is hundreds of used McCarty’s on Reverb and I’m willing to spend up to $3500 if the value is there.
2) I know the neck on a McCarty is quite a bit chunkier than a CE or Custom 24 neck. Anyone have trouble transitioning to it? I have large hands so I don’t think it will be an issue.
Thanks for your thoughts/advice!
