  • The S2 McCarty 594 Thinline is an all-mahogany, thin-body guitar with a powerful voice. Whether you are looking for authentic humbucking tones or nuanced, sweet single-coil sounds, the S2 McCarty 594 Thinline can seamlessly master both sonic territories thanks to its 58/15 “S” pickups and dual volume and push/pull tone controls.
    The S2 McCarty 594 Thinline is addictive to play, thanks in part to its all-mahogany body, versatile control layout, and bound 22-fret Pattern Thin neck. The distinctive, powerful voice is backed by modern construction, so it plays in tune, stays in tune, and is intonated the entire length of the neck. A zinc two- piece bridge and vintage-style tuners anchor this guitar and stay true to the promise of the McCarty family.
    Designed to capture the heart of the McCarty family of instruments and stay true to the S2 Series spirit, the S2 McCarty 594 Thinline stands on its own as a gig-ready workhorse for the player who wants to cover a lot of musical ground.

    It seems like the 594 Thinline is PRS fixing all the issues inherent with the Gibson SG. I like it!

    Thank you for this very insightful video. This guitar is in my dreams, and I'm saving money to buy it next year...
    I haven't had a chance to try it in any stores yet, but I hope to do so soon.
    On paper it is my ultimate short scale guitar, but I'll wait to say for sure when I have it in my hands.

  • @sublyme2157
    @sublyme2157 2 года назад +3

    A neat trick is to put the pickup selector in the middle (both pickups full) and role the neck volume down just a tick, say to 9. That tiny little adjustment gives a whole new tone :)
    Another great tone is to put the pickup selector in the middle and split the bridge humbucker. Almost gets an acoustic vibe.

    I’m a sucker for a cherry finish Jon. Again lovely tones, PRS seem to do split coil really well. It’s coming across very resonant and again looks a pleasure to play. Oh boy ! I might have to add to my list . 😄😄👍👍❤️

    Hi Jonathan, Been following your videos. Great reviews. Is it possible to get in touch with you re some advice on guitars and improvements. I am very interested particularly seeing playing w/o using the little finger. I have a problem with my, can't stretch. Hope this is not an intrusion. I am originally from S'pore too.

    Hi Jonathon, question for you on the Pattern Vintage neck. How does it compare to the Pattern Regular neck in terms of feel and size? I’m thinking about buying an S2 594 double cut and currently play an S2 Mira which has the pattern regular and I love that neck. Can’t find one locally so will have to buy online.

    I'm sure that is better but I have a HB G3 the same wood and color they look a lot a like the HB plays nice that guitar really make me think of my HB G3 copy sculped the same on the body and the switch is in the same annoying place so I can hit it when I strum it. That guitar is beautiful. I would like to own one.

    I think I prefer the sound of the Standard, it sounds like fuller sound but maybe has less sustain? Oh I don't know which to go for now 😄 how do you rate them side by side?

    Great looking and sounding guitar in one of my favorite colours.
    But why no locking tuners? at this price those cheap vintage ones
    are not for me, and you can't upgrade them without leaving unsightly
    holes.
    This is a shame as the rest of the guitar including the slim neck would
    be perfect for me.
    Perhaps i need to search for an older model with locking tuners.
    Thanks for another great demo Jonathan😉

      I own a S2 Thinline, I upgraded to Grover Vintage 533 locking tuners. They fit perfectly, no additional holes needed. I think that the Gotoh SD90s will also work.

    • @guninstructorscott1304
      @guninstructorscott1304 Год назад

      I replaced my S2 Thinline stock tuners with Kluson 3+3 Locking Revolution Series G-Mount Non-Collared Tuners, Gold. Got them from Stewmac. RUclips installation video out there - exact fit. Replaced them one year ago - extremely happy with them.

    I want this guitar really bad but am worried the neck will be too thin. Otherwise it’s perfect.

    • @mickroy5585
      @mickroy5585 2 года назад

      Hahaha I have a CE 24 semi hollow with a pattern thin neck, and that’s one reason why I ordered the thinline. I seriously considered the double cut with the pattern vintage neck profile, but I chickened out because I have smaller hands and thought accessing the upper registers would be more challenging. But I may change my mind after watching Jon.

    • @CarlyonProduction
      @CarlyonProduction 2 года назад

      @@JonIsJustTooLoud yeah it didn’t look that thin when you turned it round.
      Seriously tempted by either this or a Yamaha sg. Having a hard time deciding.

    After having mine for a good while, I would rate it a piece of crap. Why use overseas pots when CTS pots are not expensive, why use overseas pickups, it’s not like it is a cheap guitar. The finish is crap, so fragile and everything reacts with it. The idea was good and it could have been great, but all you are paying for is more expensive labour costs, just a USA SE really

      Nitro is reactive, that's part of Nitro. My 2021 CE didn't hold up well... at first. Sent it back under warranty and they fixed it right up. Finish looks good and is holding up well. I'm just mindful it is nitro and not poly. The import potsmon my 2017 SE are still going strong, so Un not quite sure what the problem is there.
      I agree about pickups, the Americans are a bit sweeter, but I don't think the imports are particularly bad. Ofcourse PRS is now using the USA pickups in these guitars.
      The S2 does feel better than the SE. The SE line is great, but there is a feeling of quality that the S2 line has over the SE.
