PRS S2 McCarty 594 Thinline DS review

The PRS S2 McCarty 594 Thinline DS is a U.S.-made electric guitar listed at 2,385. Its specification centers on a mahogany body and neck, a rosewood fingerboard, and two 58/15 LT pickups. It has a 625 mm (24.594-inch) scale, 22 frets, and a two-piece PRS bridge. A gig bag is included, while a hard case is not.

There are no customer reviews available for this model, so there is no user feedback to report. The assessment here is based solely on the listed features. Those details describe the instrument's construction and control layout, but they do not establish how it sounds, feels, or performs in use.

Body, neck, and fingerboard

The body and set neck are both mahogany. The specification lists no separate top, so there is no basis for describing a distinct cap or top wood. The listed finish color is inconsistent: one entry says Cherry Sunburst, while the detailed specification says Dark Cherry Sunburst. Buyers should confirm the exact finish with the seller before ordering.

The rosewood fingerboard has 22 frets and bird inlays. Its stated radius is 254 mm (10 inches), and the nut width is 42.9 mm (1.6875 inches). PRS calls the neck profile Pattern Thin, with a stated thickness of 21 mm at the first fret and 23 mm at the twelfth. Faux-bone binding is listed along the neck. These measurements give a useful outline of the neck dimensions, though they cannot substitute for trying the guitar in person.

The 625 mm scale is shorter than a 25-inch scale. Scale length affects string tension in combination with string gauge and tuning, but the specification alone does not predict a player's preferred feel. No string gauge or factory setup details are provided.

Pickups and controls

The pickup system is HH, meaning two humbucking pickups. Both are identified as PRS 58/15 LT models. The guitar has separate volume controls for the two pickups, along with two tone controls that include push-pull functions. A three-way toggle switch selects between the pickups and their combined position.

The push-pull feature adds switching options through the tone controls, but the supplied information does not explain the exact wiring or which pickup coils are engaged in each configuration. It would be inaccurate to promise a particular single-coil mode or describe specific tonal results without that detail. The hardware list also does not provide output measurements or other electrical specifications.

Bridge, hardware, and included bag

A two-piece PRS bridge is specified, and the guitar has no tremolo. That points to a fixed bridge arrangement rather than a vibrato system. The tuners are non-locking, vintage-style machine heads, and the remaining hardware is nickel. No locking tuners are listed, and the specification does not give details about bridge adjustment or tuning stability.

The package includes a gig bag, not a hard case. That distinction matters for buyers planning regular transport or storage. The listing identifies the sales unit as one piece and gives item number 651893. Availability is listed as September 2026.

Technical assessment

The documented strengths of the PRS S2 McCarty 594 Thinline DS are its clearly specified mahogany construction, dual 58/15 LT pickups, and independent volume and tone controls with push-pull functions. The neck dimensions, fingerboard radius, nut width, and scale length are also stated, giving prospective buyers concrete measurements to compare against instruments they already know.

Important points remain unconfirmed. The finish name differs between the general and detailed listings, the push-pull wiring is not explained, and no customer feedback or hands-on performance information is available. The listed price is 2,385, with no currency specified in the supplied data. Anyone comparing it with another guitar should verify the finish and switching details, and confirm exactly what the quoted price includes.

On the available evidence, this is a U.S.-made, fixed-bridge electric guitar with a short-scale specification, two humbuckers, and a gig bag. The specifications are detailed enough to assess its basic layout, but they do not support claims about sound quality, setup, or player comfort.
