PRS McCarty 594 S/H WL FT DCB review
The PRS McCarty 594 S/H WL FT DCB is listed as a single-piece limited run, with item number 643840 and a price of 6,890. The supplied information does not identify a currency, so the figure should be treated as the listed price rather than assigned a currency value. There are no customer reviews available for this product. This assessment is therefore based only on the published specifications, not on player feedback or a hands-on test.
The model name identifies it as a McCarty 594, while the listed body shape is ST-style. Those labels describe different aspects of the guitar: the model designation and the stated outline category. The specification sheet does not explain the shape in more detail, so it would be unwise to infer dimensions or ergonomic features from the label alone. The finish color is Cherry Burst.
Body, top, and neck materials
The body is made from ash, with a maple top. The neck is flamed maple, and the fingerboard is ziricote. This provides a clear material description across the main wooden components, but the data does not state the ash grade, the maple top construction, the neck profile, or the fingerboard radius. It also gives no finish type or neck attachment method.
Those missing details matter when comparing guitars at this price. Wood names alone do not establish weight, resonance, feel, or consistency from one instrument to another. In particular, there is no listed instrument weight, and no information about neck thickness or fretboard contour. Buyers who care about those factors should seek confirmation from PRS or the retailer before ordering.
Fret layout and scale
The guitar has 24 frets and a listed scale length of 624 mm. That is the only measurement supplied for the playing layout. The specification does not say what fret wire is used, how the frets are finished, or whether the neck has any particular edge treatment. It also does not identify the nut material or width.
The 24-fret count is a useful point of comparison for players choosing between instruments with different fret layouts. However, the listing alone cannot establish upper-fret access or how the neck feels in use. Those qualities depend on construction details that are not included here, as well as individual preference.
Pickups and tremolo
The pickup configuration is listed as HH, meaning two humbucking pickups. The sheet does not provide pickup models, magnet types, output levels, switching options, or control details. It is therefore possible to describe the pickup layout, but not to make reliable claims about the guitar's tone or available sounds.
A PRS-style tremolo is specified. No further information is given about its materials, adjustment range, or setup. The listing also does not state whether the bridge is supplied with any particular factory configuration. Players who need a specific pickup voice or tremolo setup should confirm those details rather than rely on the model name or broad category.
Included accessories and limited availability
A case is included, while a bag is not. The product is marked as a single-piece limited run, and the sales unit is one piece. These details indicate that the listing concerns a limited, individually sold instrument, but they do not establish how many examples exist elsewhere or whether another unit can be ordered later.

Technical verdict
The available specifications describe a PRS McCarty 594 with an ash body, maple top, flamed maple neck, ziricote fingerboard, 24 frets, HH pickup layout, and PRS-style tremolo. The Cherry Burst finish and included case are also confirmed. That is enough to establish the basic materials and configuration, but not enough to judge sound, setup, weight, playability, or construction quality.
At a listed price of 6,890, missing information is especially relevant to a purchase decision. Before committing, ask the seller to confirm the currency, pickup and control specifications, neck profile, instrument weight, and setup details. The listing presents a distinctive material combination and a limited-run designation, but a fair assessment of value depends on information that is not provided. With no customer feedback available, the most responsible conclusion is a specification-based one: the core components are documented, while several factors that strongly affect ownership remain unverified.
Shipping and duties
The retailer ships from its warehouse in Germany. Prices are shown in US dollars and do not include import duties. Orders under roughly $800 usually clear US customs without duty; above that, a duty of a few percent may be collected on delivery. 30-day money-back and a 3-year warranty apply.
