PRS S2 Mccarty 594 Thinline Electric Guitar, Space Blue

The PRS S2 McCarty 594 Thinline comes together as a keen variation on a time-tested PRS classic. With an eye towards dynamic musicality and playability, it’s a tonal tour de force.

Touching down, the S2 McCarty 594 Thinline plays similarly to its non-thinline brethren. Starting at square one with a thin, all-mahogany body, the 594 Thinline harnesses all the sonic goodness and acoustic resonance of the tonewood to make itself known. Its unique, thinline body design adds that extra ergonomic element to the guitar, alongside its classic PRS asymmetric bevel top carve. When added to its PRS Pattern Thin scarfed mahogany neck, this guitar comes together in hand smoothly. The set mahogany neck is matched with a twenty-two-fret rosewood fingerboard with faux bone binding that solidifies both a streamlined playing and distinct aesthetic experience. Classic PRS Birds inlays appear on the fingerboard for that boosted visual element of PRS authenticity.

This PRS selection of woods is only made more impressive by its selection of electronics. Equipped in this S2 series model are two 58/15 LT humbucking pickups that summon interesting and impressive tonality. Made here in the USA, these LT “low turn” pickups harness a distinctly vintage and warm tone with push/pull tone controls that expand this guitar’s sonic palette even wider. These pickups make for nothing short of an incredible showcase of rich and refined tonality for any player to embody and get lost in.

Contributing to this 594 Thinline’s electronics is PRS’s assortment of hardware appointments, adding to the finished product in impressive fashion. A PRS two-piece bridge, made of brass and zinc, features four body contact points to ensure stability. Enhancing the natural tonality with its added mass, the bridge works as an essential element in stabilizing the playing experience of this Thinline. The fine hardware appointments continue further on the headstock with PRS Vintage-Style non-locking tuners with “Wing” buttons. These tuners, lighter in weight than their metal predecessors, promote resonance and musicality in strings by better concentrating vibrations and resulting in a more musical note.

The PRS S2 McCarty 594 Thinline arrives on the scene as a reliable and powerful PRS perfect for players seeking the next level of musicality. Wholly, it is a delight.
