PRS SE 594 McCarthy SC Standard, tobacco burst, made in Indonesia 2023. The 594 model is named after the scale length: 24.594", a nudge shorter than the signature 25" length you'll find on the Custom 24 etc. This version also gets a deeper body, a fat 'pattern vintage' neck which is similar to a '58 style Gibson shape, a carved plain mahogany top, vintage style white button tuners and a pair of 'low turn' humbuckers. It's not aiming to be a super quick shred machine, but it's a comfy player: sensible ergonomic curves, lightweight body, great hardware. The tone on deck is sparkly and wide, with that recognisable PRS evenness and balance.  This is a very pragmatic guitar, but it still manages to look sleek. I give it 594 points.
