PRS McCarty 594 S/H WL QT DCB: specification review

The PRS McCarty 594 S/H WL QT DCB is listed at a price of 6999, with no currency specified in the supplied data. Its specifications describe an ST-style electric guitar with an ash body, a quilted maple top, a flamed maple neck, and a ziricote fingerboard. It has 24 frets, a 624 mm scale, an HH pickup configuration, and a PRS-style tremolo. A case is included, while a bag is not.

There are no customer reviews available for this product. That limits what can responsibly be said about its sound, setup, comfort, reliability, or value in practice. This assessment therefore focuses on what the listed features establish, and on the questions a buyer may want answered before making a purchase.

Body, top, and finish

The body is specified as ash, with quilted maple for the top. These are distinct construction details, but the listing does not state the body's weight, the thickness of the top, or whether the top is a veneer or a thicker piece of maple. Those details matter when comparing construction and anticipating the finished instrument's balance, so they should not be inferred from the material names alone.

The finish color is Cherry Burst. That identifies the listed appearance, but there is no photograph or finish description in the supplied specifications to establish how the color transitions across the top or how the grain is presented. The abbreviation "QT" in the product name is not defined in the data, so it should not be treated as a separate confirmed specification beyond the explicitly listed quilted maple top.

Neck, fingerboard, and scale

The neck is flamed maple and the fingerboard is ziricote. The listing confirms 24 frets and a 624 mm scale. It does not provide a neck profile, fingerboard radius, nut width, fret material, or fret size. Those omissions leave important aspects of hand feel and playability unknown. A buyer who has a specific preference for a neck shape or fret dimensions should seek confirmation from the seller rather than assume details from the McCarty 594 model name.

The 624 mm scale is a useful concrete measurement for comparing this guitar with instruments a player already knows. However, scale length alone does not establish string tension or playing feel. String gauge, tuning, setup, and other construction details are not included here, so claims about bending effort or overall response would be speculative.

Electronics and hardware

The pickup system is listed as HH, indicating two humbucking pickups in the stated configuration. The specifications do not identify the pickup models, magnets, wiring options, controls, or switching arrangement. As a result, the configuration tells us the broad pickup layout, but not the available sounds or how the controls operate. No tonal judgment can be made from the pickup count alone.

The tremolo is described as PRS-style. The listing does not give its exact model, construction, or adjustment details. It also does not specify the bridge or tuning machines separately. Players who need a particular tremolo design or want to know whether the hardware meets a specific setup requirement should verify those points before ordering.

Included items and edition information

A case is included, and a bag is not. That is a clear distinction in the package contents, though the case type and its construction are not specified. The limited-run field says "Single Piece." This indicates how the item is categorized in the supplied listing, but does not provide enough context to establish production history, total availability, or future collectability.

  • Model: McCarty 594
  • Shape: ST-style
  • Body and top: Ash body with a quilted maple top
  • Neck and fingerboard: Flamed maple neck and ziricote fingerboard
  • Frets and scale: 24 frets and a 624 mm scale
  • Pickups and tremolo: HH configuration and PRS-style tremolo
  • Included items: Case included, bag not included

What the specifications do and do not establish

The listed materials and measurements give shoppers a useful outline of the instrument's construction. They do not establish its weight, acoustic properties, pickup voicing, factory setup, or condition. The supplied data also gives an item number, 643835, and a sales unit of one piece, but neither resolves those performance questions.

At the stated price of 6999, buyers should confirm the currency, availability, exact hardware and electronics, and the meaning of "Single Piece" with the seller. With no customer feedback available, there is no basis for reporting owner impressions or claiming that the guitar performs in a particular way. The strongest conclusion is a limited one: this is a PRS McCarty 594 specification listing with a distinctive combination of named woods, a 24-fret layout, HH pickups, and a case included.

Scores by area

Where it shines, where it stumbles

What convinced me

  • Ash body paired with a quilted maple top and flamed maple neck.
  • Ziricote fingerboard and 24 frets.
  • Includes a case and uses a PRS-style tremolo.

What bugged me

  • No bag is included.
  • The listed price is high, and no customer reviews are available to help assess value.

Is it the right one for you?

Good pick if

A strong candidate for players seeking a figured-wood finish, dual humbuckers, and 24 frets. Also worth considering for buyers who value an included case and a relatively short scale.

Look elsewhere if

Not a clear fit for buyers who need an included gig bag or want customer reviews before buying. The high listed price may also put it beyond budget-focused shoppers.

Its dual-humbucker setup and PRS-style tremolo offer a familiar, versatile configuration, while the 624 mm scale is relatively short. The included case is welcome, but a bag is not included.
