  • The S2 Series began in 2013 to provide players with the fit, feel, and attention to detail of PRS craftsmanship in a fresh, straightforward design. Since its introduction, the Series has grown from three models to more than a dozen options for players - one of the most recent introductions being the S2 McCarty 594. The 10th Anniversary S2 McCarty 594 has been specially appointed to celebrate the Series’ milestone occasion and to deliver more tone, more beauty, and more value than ever before.
    The 10th Anniversary S2 McCarty 594 builds on the original specs of the S2 McCarty 594, retaining a maple top, mahogany back, 24.594” scale length, 22-fret Pattern Vintage neck, PRS two-piece bridge, and vintage-style tuners. Special appointments include: a Cuban mahogany neck, mother of pearl bird inlays, and - most notably - USA-made PRS 58/15 LT pickups and electronics. PRS 58/15 LT (“low turn”) pickups are vintage-inspired pickups with exceptional clarity. Designed to capture the sweetness of vintage single coils and the warmth of late 1950’s humbuckers and fine-tuned using the PRS TCI process, these pickups are lively and open with a focused midrange and balanced treble and bass.
    1,000 10th Anniversary S2 McCarty 594 Limited Edition instruments will be made.

      Looks like these are listing for $2399 - about $500 more than a regular S2 594 and about exactly what PRS is charging for a set of 58/15LTs right now via their website - I guess you do save ~10% the cost of the pickups ($50) vs doing the upgrade yourself.

      But it's also limited edition so serial number and exclusiveness are also takeaways for some of us. To each there own though. I think this video brought us all here for us to evaluate and decide for ourselves if there is value-vs-gain for this new introduction. I think PRS put in some fine and welcomed additions to this year's S2 releases. I didn't ultimately purchase this S2 10th anniversary McCarty 594. I went with a different S2 10th anniversary. All-in-all, this is still an amazing guitar and value, in my humble opinion.

    I just got mine last week. Amazing is scratching the surface of this guitar. I own several cores and this S2 has moved to become one of my favoriates. I'm so glad i found this 10th anniversary model. I normally use guitars with a trem but played a regular S2 594 in a store & wow really enjoyed it. I researched a little and decided on this anniversary 594. Pickups are super clear & can go from chicken picken to metal. I was not crazy about the tuners look & worried about it holding tune but it stays in tune pretty much all night. It even arrived in tune enough that I coudl have gigged it out of the box. I played it for almost a full 4 set gig the day after I got it. Can't seem to put it down. Those pickups are a 10/10. I got the green model it has one of the nicest tops I have seen on an S2 & POPS. it's a looker & a player. They have hit a grand slam out of the park.

    Order placed today! Lake Blue. Very happy to get in on this limited edition. I currently own a 2020 S2 Single Cut in McCarty Burst. As noted by others..."the most comfortable LP type" I have ever played. I upgraded the entire electronics package a year later in '21 (worth the effort but a pain). A bit about S2s... They share the same one-piece mahogany back as Core 594s and, with the 594, the same bridge and tailpiece. They also have the same fret wire as the Cores. Regardless of the S2 multipiece neck... it is the sonic quality of the woods used in S2s and the added skill and scrutiny of the USA assembly line that primarily separates them from the SE guitars (which, are now shockingly good for the $$$). It is these attributes and the comfort of the bevel cut bodies that make S2s worth the money to me and many others. Add Core electronics to the mix and my guess is they will sell all of these (1,000 594s, 1,000 Custom 24s) quickly and easily.
    I think these instruments will hold value exceptionally well.

    I certainly love mine! This said, it’d be out of this world to see PRS do a version with the US pickups/electronics AND a 10 top! I’d happily pay even more than what the 10th anniversary edition goes for! I love the S2 top carve and what I just suggested would be total Cloud 9!!!
