Vintage Inspired Singlecut With PRS Clarity And Punch
This PRS McCarty 10-Top in McCarty Sunburst is what happens when classic singlecut DNA meets obsessive PRS build quality. It has that thick, singing sustain you want from a mahogany and maple combo, with the tuning stability and detail work that makes you forget about fighting the guitar and just play.
10-Top Maple And Mahogany That Sing
The carved 10-Top maple cap is not just pretty flame. It adds snap and definition to the warm, woody mahogany back, so chords stay clear and lead lines bloom with piano like sustain. The high gloss nitro finish lets the whole body ring instead of damping it with a thick plastic coat, so you feel every note through the strap.
Pattern Neck That Feels Broken In On Day One
PRS nailed the sweet spot with the Pattern neck carve. It has enough shoulder to fill your hand for big bends and vibrato, but it never feels like a baseball bat during long sets. The rosewood board with faux bone binding and a 10 inch radius keeps bends buttery and chords comfortable up and down all 22 frets.
McCarty LT Pickups: Low Wind, High Character
The McCarty LT humbuckers are voiced for vintage flavor, not brute force. They stay open and clear, with a focused midrange that lets your amp and hands do the heavy lifting instead of a compressed, overly hot pickup. Roll the tone or volume back and they clean up to glassy, articulate textures, then push the front of a good tube amp and they growl with rich, musical grit.
Kick in the push pull tone control and you get coil split sparkle that still feels full and usable. Real talk, this is the kind of guitar that covers a whole night without ever feeling like a compromise.
Wing Tuners, Stoptail Bridge, And The Little Things
Everything that touches the string matters. The PRS stoptail with brass inserts couples the strings to the body hard, which is why this guitar sustains the way it does. The new lightweight vintage style wing tuners shave mass off the headstock so more of your energy stays in the string, helping chords ring longer and at a more musical note.
Bone nut, rock solid set neck joint, and PRS level fretwork mean you are not paying boutique money to immediately schedule a fret dress. It ships with PRS Signature 10 to 46 strings, so it feels familiar if you live in that classic tension zone.
